SAU 29 Knows How Important Parent Engagement is to Student Success

In SAU 29 (located in Keene and the largest multi-district SAU in NH) they know it is important enough to devote a quarterly meeting to special education. NHC Facilitator Denise Feeney recently presented to 50 plus special education staff from the seven districts about the importance of engaging parents and community members in a meaningful way.

Current practices were shared among the participants to highlight ideas and successes. Some time was spent discussing the Parent Involvement Survey as a tool as well as generating ideas to increase the response rate for the survey this year. We look forward to hearing from individuals who attended the meeting so we can continue to work closely on an individual level with local schools.
