On the same team : bringing educators & underrepresented families together / Ari Gerzon-Kessler.

Gerzon-Kessler, Ari. (Author).

Summary:

"Students' primary caregivers hold an important role in their education, so it is essential for educators to establish a sense of community and foundation of trust among parents and guardians. In On the Same Team: Bringing Educators and Underrepresented Families Together, Ari Gerzon-Kessler explains how the Families and Educators Together (FET) approach creates strong family-school partnerships, fosters a culture of recognition and support for underrepresented groups, and establishes an equitable and inclusive community. Informed by current research and the author's experience designing and facilitating over 400 FET meetings, On the Same Team is a useful resource to district leaders aiming to implement the FET framework or to educators hoping to make an impact on underrepresented and underserved families"-- Provided by publisher.
