Excellent schools are community-driven from the very inception and they know how to deeply and authentically engage families along the way to meet their collective mission. Participants will learn one framework and process for guiding an intentional community engagement process from the pre-design phase to the full build out of a school, and then build their own. Structures and tools will be shared for a Listening Tour, Community Outreach Ambassador program, Village Action Committee, and more.
