The Parent Engagement Gear
Imagine if parents didn’t just receive updates — they became your biggest champions.
Let me tell you a story. For years, schools have been playing an exhausting game of “communicate and hope.” Newsletters flying into inboxes. Random app notifications. Sporadic event invites. Parents scrolling, sighing, deleting.
But what if there was a different way? A way where parents lean IN instead of tune OUT?
The fifth in the 5 Gears series, this episode explores the Parent Engagement Gear.
What you’ll learn:
- Engagement requires two-way communication, not just one-way updates.
- Your communication strategy should be a comprehensive system that ensures that every family feels connected to your school.
- Parent engagement is a skill that can be taught and learned.
This isn’t about more communication. It’s about meaningful connection.
This is for bold leaders ready to transform parent engagement.
The best part? This doesn’t require superhuman effort. Just a shift in approach.
