C112 | Equitable Family Engagement for SEL and Student Growth (Room 211)

Research shows that family engagement is critical for student success, especially when that engagement is centered on student learning. But for many districts, language, technology access, and resource barriers can pose significant challenges. Come learn how districts have successfully implemented Family Playlists™ -- a multilingual, mobile-friendly intervention that puts students in the seat of the teacher at home, explaining learning concepts to a family partner (often in their home language) and engaging in offline learning activities together. Staff have seen unprecedented family participation as well as increased student social-emotional skills and academic gains. Walk away with lessons learned and strategies to strengthen the triangle of student-family-teacher relationships across barriers in your district. Endorsed by Future Ready
