As schools host back to school nights, parent conferences, and open houses, they sometimes struggle with not just getting parents into school, but getting them involved. So we asked the principals in our EL Mentor Schools: “What do you do to engage families in your schools? How do you connect families to supporting student achievement?”
“We’re getting smarter because of your good work.”
Recently, I had the opportunity to sit down with Steve Mahoney, principal of the Springfield Renaissance School. Renaissance is an EL Mentor School in downtown Springfield that is getting every student into college.
