Description
This week on Your Morning Boost, we are joined by special guest, Shaka Mitchell, a senior fellow with the American Federation for Children. Shaka will be sharing his insights on one of the most important relationships in a student's education: the partnership between parents and schools. He kicks off the week by discussing the concept of "the goal of the goal," a framework for improving parent engagement by looking beyond vanity metrics like event attendance and focusing on what truly mattersβbuilding strong, lasting relationships. Shaka shares a powerful framework from the book Reset by Dan Heath, explaining how a small amount of effort in the right place can yield disproportionate results. Tune in to learn how to strengthen the parent-school partnership and set students up for success.
