We could incorporate a Growth Mindset section in the Parent Newsletter and provide the parents various pieces of information on the topic.

Having students become the voice is an excellent idea. As we become more invested in the language and philosophy of a growth mindset as a school I believe it will be easy for us to present to our parents and community. I love all ideas presented here.

I agree with what several other people have suggested: we need to start internally by directly teaching it to the students, and then work outward. We should be continually showing it to the community, rather than a one-and-done event. We could issue this continuous communication via the school's website/social media in addition to the presentations/events.

I would agree with Lisa and others that engaging students in growth mindset activities in the classroom is a good starting point.
I would also think that having growth mindset articles for parents in a school newsletter or in the Sounder would help provide information about growth mindset. Pairing with PTO and/or public library to host speakers who can inform and teach this topic to the community would be great.
Another idea would be to have an open house at some point in the year where we highlight the good things that happen in the classroom - art, music, forensics, etc - and have mini-talks on growth mindset and other issues that are effecting kids.

We need to start with the students.  Growth mindset activities should be incorporated into our classrooms when appropriate.

I also like the idea of providing families with information at the beginning of the year and possibly monthly via a middle school newsletter or some other means of communication.

I love the idea of having students interview community members about their mindset. That is great! I also think it is important that the parents, students, and community are hearing it everywhere (website, information, speakers, student conversation...) The more we get it our there, the better. What if the district made a video showing the teachers and staff sharing something they have had to work hard towards

It would require more than just sending information home. The parents would need to attend some sort of meeting/speaker or possibly have some sort of webinar they could watch to help them understand growth mindset. Having copies of the books available for them to peruse would be beneficial as well.

At the start of the school year send home an informational handout, have the teachers do a presentation to families with activities. Have students do a Growth Mindset project in which they need to involve family members

It was great to hear some of parents talk about growth mindset during conferences. I think the more we talk about it and incorporate it in conversation it will come through. I like the idea of writing some articles and having the students go out in the community to interview people on their mindset.

I think it would be a good idea to hold a night every quarter where parent can come learn about growth mindset. We really need to get them on board. I think having students get the word out in the community would have a really big impact. I think the more we begin the conversation, the more we can start to help the community hopefully move towards a growth mindset as well.

Perhaps at the beginning of the year there could be presentation at Back to School Barbeque. Then again on conference nights.

We could break up into groups like we do in our meetings and hold workshops at the public library one night a week for a month. Call it "Growth Mindset month." Once a week each group will present ideas and activities like we did in class to the community. Then the library will have the books that the public could check out or purchase and read.

I agree with everything Schwalbe, Hinze, and Risse have written so far: direct teaching of mindset to students and saturating the community with growth mindset information through speakers, the newspaper, pamphlets, etc.

Students need to be taught directly about growth mindset. We need to model it so they can experience it in real life too

# data[].attributes.body
Engage students in projects on Growth Mindset. Have students reach out to others in the community (Parents, Neighbors, Siblings, etc.) to interview them on their mindset. Once we start the conversation and change our mindset within our school walls, hopefully there will be a naturally progression across other venues for our students as well.

Have an outside speaker come in and talk about the topic.

Have one of the principals write about it in The Sounder. This would be one of the articles that they write on a regular basis.

Have a pamphlet made up that could be handed out at Parent Teacher conferences or the Back to School BBQ.
