What is Family Engagement?  
• A shared responsibility in which schools and other community agencies and  organizations are committed to engaging families in meaningful and culturally respectful  ways, and families are committed to actively supporting their children’s learning and  development. 
• From cradle to career, continuous across a child’s life, spanning from Early Head Start  programs to college and career. 
• Across contexts, carried out everywhere that children learn – at home, in pre kindergarten programs, in school, in after-school programs, in faith-based institutions,  and in community programs and activities. 
This definition of family engagement focuses on children’s learning in a variety of settings—not  just in school—and reflects the many different ways in which families and schools engage with  and support one another.
