I believe strong parent engagement increases active participation, communication, and collaboration between parents, schools, and communities with the goal of educating the whole child to ensure student achievement and success. Duties include: Facilitate implementation of the Santa Fe Public Schools Parent Academy, which includes developing courses, hiring staff, coordinating logistics, compiling status reports and assessing program outcomes.
