btalika — 2025-09-25 21:30:42 UTC

What will we see families, educators, school staff, and students doing?
How will educators/ staff interact with families and students?

Educators will use multiple forms of communication between parents and teachers. For example, google voice text messages, phone calls, emails, Jupiter Grade messages.

Families will define what meaningful involvement looks like based on their strengths, schedules, and cultural values

btalika — 2025-09-25 21:31:58 UTC

Staff will use communication tools (calls, Jupiter, email) regularly for positive and negative feedback for individual students.

cjones81_4 — 2025-09-25 21:32:30 UTC

families will share their input on what they want this to look like and be invited to help us reshape and structure this

Students will (hopefully) regularly check Jupiter and/or Google Classroom for any announcements made by their teachers!!!

Families will feel comfortable reaching out to the school and teachers. If they want to ask a question and communicate an issue, they are able to get through

cjones81_4 — 2025-09-25 21:33:13 UTC

staff will loop eachother in to the happenings of students and families - using anecdotals in a consistent way across the grade level?

lpaterson28 — 2025-09-25 21:33:32 UTC

Parents will share their hopes and concerns for their kids in ways that feel comfortable to them

msarker7 — 2025-09-25 21:33:45 UTC

Teachers are able to leverage parent relationships to help achieve instructional goals/holistic development in the child

cmcgregor25 — 2025-09-25 21:33:52 UTC

Students will be motivated through the use of stickers, leader boards, candy. Basically providing incentives that are not grade based in order to enhance student engagement.

lpaterson28 — 2025-09-25 21:33:59 UTC

Check in with families about whether our communication and support is actually working for them

cjones81_4 — 2025-09-25 21:34:14 UTC

other staff members beyond teachers will support the effort so it isnt such a big life - how do we loop in the main office for support, parent coordinator, admin, counseling staff, etc...
