Course Description:

The learning process takes a village.  It’s not just important to have the teachers, guidance and administrators on your side, but you must have a supportive family behind you.  This course will work with educators and their families to build important relationships. Educators will work on strategies that connect all students to learning and to the learning process. Teachers will be able to share the importance of learning, mindset, communication and more.  Educators will work on daily routines to build support with their students.  Practices will also be shared that can be brought home and worked on with your family.  By the end of this course, educators and families will realize how important it is to make and keep these positive connections for the sake of the students, the family relationships and the learning process.  This course is a must for all educators grades K-12.
