Welcoming all families and the community is one of the six structures of Georgia’s Family and Community Engagement System, but what practical strategies can schools anywhere in the country and online adopt to ensure an environment that equitably welcomes all families, students, and community members? This session will feature Georgia’s Family-Friendly Partnership Schools Initiative's nine year history of developing resources such as a walk-through rubric, scenarios, a downloadable virtual model of schools, a statewide awards program, and a two-year professional learning option. The session will also highlight Georgia school systems with examples of a family-friendly virtual school and school buildings. Participants will interact with each other to share ideas and resources effective for welcoming families and the community.
