These redesign principles are Personalized Learning, Real World  \nApplication, Student Success Skills, and Family/Business/Community Engagement. They  \noriginated and were codified from data collected from the Kansas Children, Kansas’ Future  \nCommunity Conversation Tour in 2015. During that tour, over 2,000 Kansans in 20  \ncommunities provided feedback regarding the role ofK-12 education in preparing the successful  \nKansas high school graduate (Neuenswander, 2018) . The oversite of the Kansans Can School  \nRedesign Project is the responsibility of the Redesign Project Team of the Kansas State  \nDepartment of Education. This team is made up of the Deputy Commissioner of Learning  \nServices, two Redesign Specialists, a Redesign Coordinator, and one other KSDE consultant.  \nThe earliest cohort of volunteer schools, named the Mercury and Gemini I Projects, were led by  \nthe two KSDE redesign specialists through a planning process that included engaging  \ncommunity stakeholders in developing a shared vision for their redesigned and innovative  \nschool. Many of the earliest launch schools proved to be very successful in engaging  \nstakeholders to collect authentic feedback early in the process. However, even with these  \nattempts, some school districts were surprised by pushback from stakeholders early in the  \nimplementation phase of the Redesign. This paper will review pertinent literature regarding best  \npractices for family, school, and community engagement when initiating major change  \ninitiatives. The section entitled “A Tale of Two Districts” will describe scenarios from details  \nthat took place in several redesign districts. The conclusion will be a reflection by the author,  \nwho is one of the redesign specialists, on lessons learned, that may help to inform future schools  \nwho are attempting a large-scale innovation.  \nReview of the Literature  \nThe fields of education, child welfare, child psychology, and social work have created decades of  \nresearch on the importance of family and community engagement (Mallon, 2004) . Federal and  \nstate laws require parent and family engagement.
