MONDAY MATTERS with Jen Schwanke and Will Parker – Building Trust with Parents
Description
This week on Monday Matters, Will Parker and Jen Schwanke talk more about a concept from Jen’s new book, Trusted: Trust Pillars, Trust Killers, and the Secret to Successful Schools. The topic of conversation this week is building trust with parents. Jen shares several components that are key to schools building a trusting relationship with parents. The first is strong communication; parents need to know who to contact. The second is fostering a sense of belonging for students and parents alike. Another component is competency. Parents need to feel that their children will be well served by teachers and staff. Finally, building connections among families so that they feel that they are a part of what the school does leads to a trusting relationship between parents and school leaders. To learn more about how schools can build a trusting relationship with parents, listen to the episode and make sure to check out Jen’s book, Trusted: Trust Pillars, Trust Killers, and the Secret to Successful Schools!
