Family Engagement in Literacy

Objective 5: Develop stronger family engagement practices that support literacy. Objective 6: Increase literacy proficiency rates.

Family Engagement in Literacy

Children are awake for about 6,000 hours a year, and only about 1,000 of those hours are spent in school. If we are to tackle the achievement gap and the inequities that contribute to it, we must pay attention not only to schools, but also to the places where children spend the rest of those 5,000 hours. -- H. Weiss, M. Elena Lopez and Margaret Caspe, Carnegie Challenge Paper: Joining Together to Create a Bold Vision for Next Generation Family Engagement, Global Family Research Project, 2018.
