Student learning and healthy youth development thrive when families work in partnership with schools and community organizations. Those collaborations can be especially powerful when they are built around service and civic engagement. Workshop participants will explore three core questions?
How does this collaborative approach to service benefit schools, students, and communities? Such an initiative can provide students with the inspiration, skills, and heart to become compassionate and community-focused leaders.
What are the components — including service opportunities, events, and celebrations — of a successful school culture of service? We’ll connect you with lots of ideas and materials to get started.
How can your school encourage ongoing family support for your program?
Our goal is to see every child grow up knowing that part of what we do—as citizens, as human beings—is to help one another out. At every workshop, we’ll let you know how we’re working toward that vision and how you can help.
