They shared information about the forums/groups that provided information or data that was used in their work as well as how the data was organized and analyzed. They also presented the issues/perspectives/data that they believe to be essential in how they determined the values and content that framed their proposed policy and procedural directives on family engagement.
The Assistant Superintendent for School and Community Support Diego Gallegos, the Executive Director of Board Services BrendaYager , the Director of the School and Community Partnerships Department Teresa Brito-Asenap, and the Legislative Liaison and Policy Analyst Carrie Robin Menapace continue to work with FUE and have agreed to include FUE in the process for reviewing current policy language regarding family engagement.
