Agenda Item Summary: In May 2018, 1,334 parents/guardians of students attending ACPS’s six Title I schools completed the Title I Schools Family Engagement Survey. This survey was designed to provide actionable data to inform efforts to eliminate barriers to parent participation, meet parent needs in assisting student learning and implement strategies to support successful school and family interaction at ACPS Title I Schools.
Background: The 2018 Title I Schools Family Engagement Survey was conducted by the Office of School, Business and Community Partnerships’ Family and Community Engagement Center (FACE) in partnership with the Department of Title I Programs. The survey meets the expectation of the Department of Education’s Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA P.L. 114095) as it pertains to identifying the needs of families at Title I Schools and supports the objectives in Goal 2 of the ACPS 2020 Strategic Plan- Family and Community Engagement: ACPS will partner with families and the community in the education of Alexandria’s youth.
Recommendation: The Superintendent recommends the School Board review for information the Annual Title I Schools Family Engagement Report.
