Family and community engagement is essential for the success of all students, but it becomes especially critical for English learners who face unique challenges such as language barriers and possibly immigration issues. Strengthening the connection between schools, families, and local communities can significantly impact the educational outcomes for these students.

In this webinar, you’ll learn strategies that aim to enhance family involvement and ensure that English learners receive the support they need to thrive.
