Student Engagement Services - ASD

The Auburn School District is committed to building strong student, family and community relationships and partnerships.  Our office strives to create space, and systems, for this to occur.

• Overall school attendance;
• Achieve higher grades, achievement test scores;
• Lower drop-out rates, higher rates of graduation;
• Students' sense of personal competence and efficacy for learning;
• Students' beliefs about the importance of education, and
• Students who go on to earn more advanced degrees than disengaged families.

• Relationship-building: The school staff builds productive, personal relationships with parents of all students.
• Communication: Two-way information in many forms flows regularly between school staff and parents about students' academic achievement and individual needs.
• Decision-making: School staff encourages, supports and expects parents to be involved in school improvement decisions and to monitor and assist school improvement.
• Advocacy: For each student, the school staff identifies and supports a parent or other adult who can take personal responsibility for understanding and speaking for that child's learning needs.
• Learning Opportunities: The school staff ensures that families have multiple opportunities to understand how to support their children's learning.
• Community Partnerships: The school staff engages and partners with community members to plan and implement substantive work to improve student achievement.
