🎙️ New Episodes: Strengthening Family Engagement in Your School

Hey leaders,

If you’re trying to deepen trust with families, build stronger school-home partnerships, and boost your overall culture, these two new Empowered Educator episodes are exactly what you need.

I released two companion episodes that work together to give you BOTH the mindset and the playbook for powerful family engagement.

EPISODE 1: Top 10 Family Engagement Strategies

This episode breaks down the big picture — the approaches that schools with strong family partnerships get right. You’ll hear about things like:

Clear, consistent communication
Building relational trust
Making families feel seen and valued
Partnering with parents instead of performing for them
Creating a school culture where families belong, not “visit”

If you need a reset or want to strengthen your leadership approach in this area, this one is your foundation.

EPISODE 2: Top 10 Family Engagement Activities Every School Should Be Doing

This is the hands-on, practical follow-up. You’ll get ten easy-to-launch activities you can roll out right away, including:

Student-Led Family Learning Night
Cultural Celebration Night
Family STEM Challenges
Literacy Pajama Party
Parent University workshops
Celebration of Learning Expo

Nothing complicated. Nothing expensive. Just high-impact experiences that get families in the building and engaged with what matters most — their child’s learning.

Why These Two Episodes Work Together

The strategies help you shift your mindset. The activities help you put it into motion. And together? They give you a complete roadmap for building the kind of family partnerships that transform school culture.
