Partnerships are key to the success of our school system. The bright futures we envision for every student is a shared responsibility between our schools, families, businesses, faith communities, community organizations, and others.

Family and Community Engagement (FACE) is the collaborative efforts of schools, families, and community members in regular and meaningful communication, decision-making, and action involving student academic learning and other school activities. Research shows that when schools, families, and communities work together, students earn higher grades, attend school more regularly, stay in school, and are motivated.

The FACE Department is dedicated to increasing engagement, developing strong relationships, and intentionally building the capacity of schools, families, and the community to support a shared vision for student success. Working together as equal partners, we can ensure that all students thrive and experience a future without limits.
