Background:
|
Through the ACPS 2020 strategic plan, Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) has made a commitment to collaborate with families in providing high-quality services in the education of Alexandria’s youth. To this end, ACPS is conducting a comprehensive division-wide evaluation of family engagement. ACPS approaches evaluations through a utilization-focused lens, as evaluations are positioned to be learning opportunities to continue to improve programs, policy and practice. The rationale for this evaluation is to provide ACPS with a better understanding of the needs, barriers, resources, and services to engage all families across contexts. Key stakeholder groups have been represented throughout the evaluation planning process ranging from the development of the overall evaluation plan, including the guiding research questions, to the Request for Proposals (RFP) process. |
