making community engagement a priority
involving students in the decision making process with the families
Jewell - question on meeting standards
rigor is not just giving more homework
achievement is important, even when standards are being met
Jewell - how are you going to educate the parents on how they can help
it can't be just putting out information, needs to be two-way
taking the core values, turning them into expectations
taking the opportunity to teach without being explicit
