FAMILY ENGAGEMENT TEAM

We value partnerships with our families and believe those partnerships are critical to student success. 

Goals:

  • Promote systems that help us know each student by NAME, STRENGTH, & NEED.

  • Increase student success through intentional FAMILY OUTREACH.

  • Foster COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS as a way to engage students and families.

CORE BELIEFS 

RELEVANT

Our team is committed to responding to community and nationwide needs as they arise and embracing a culture of feedback both internally and externally so our students and their families have options that are open and hopeful and they are able to own their present and future.

RESOURCEFUL

Our success is based on the partnerships we create. Each and every one of our students deserves to be met with the correct resources as we nurture and grow their potential. Our team is here to support with community care services.

RELATIONAL

We are a growth-minded team focused on relating to people. Having shared values of belonging fosters a culture for students where they are known and challenged. Harmonizing community is a priority as we serve the students in all of our Medford schools.

MEET THE TEAM

Positive Attendance Specialists: Our specialists work as a district team to provide schools with positive support services and trauma-informed care interventions designed to engage students, families, and school personnel with techniques to improve and maintain regular, on-time attendance and enhance the student experience. This includes creating student success plans to address attendance concerns and coordinate services with family liaisons and community partners.

Family Liaisons: Our family liaisons promote community schools to partner with families and build community connections to enhance student achievement.

COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS
