Strengthening School-Community Connections for Student Success

Join the National Association of State Boards of Education (NASBE) for a discussion with authors from the Standard, including Maggie Caspe and Reyna Hernandez of NAFSCE, Jodi Grant from the Afterschool Alliance, and California State Board of Education Member Francisco Escobedo, as we explore the many ways communities can act as force multipliers to ensure all children are engaged in learning and prepared to thrive. We’ll dive deeper into how states can strengthen school-community connections, create the conditions for stronger family-school-community engagement, and drive policy to support these efforts.
