2024-25 EDUCATOR PD & FAMILY TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES!
Contact PaTTAN's Family Engagement Team to plan sessions in the upcoming school year on family engagement and other educational strategies, helpful resources, and best practices.
Consider offering in-person training or networking sessions for staff and families together. What better way to build collaborative partnerships? Online sessions are available, though face-to-face interactions are more engaging and trust building.
As PaTTAN supports your school's/district's efforts in enhancing family and community engagement, we need your help in designing professional development and technical assistance based on your preferences and needs.
