Miller, Andy Tucker, and Lakeisha Steele  \nParents and caregivers play a critical role in supporting students’ academic, social, and emotional development. Over the past few years, parent and teacher relationships have become strained by school closures, remote learning, and current political discourse. Despite the challenges, parents and teachers are working together to support our nation’s children and youth who are recovering from a pandemic that negatively affected their education, mental health, and social and emotional well-being.  \nResearch indicates that establishing collaborative partnerships between educators and families and using complementary strategies to promote learning in school and at home create optimal conditions to promote student’s academic, social, and emotional skill development (Albright et al., 2011) . As reflected in the Collaborative for Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning (CASEL) framework (n.d.a), families and caregivers are essential to the implementation of high-quality social and emotional learning.  \nFederal K-12 education law includes important provisions and resources to foster parent and family engagement in schools. To help support alignment between schools and families, this brief explores opportunities for how states and districts can leverage the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) to help strengthen family engagement in support of students’ academic, social, and emotional learning.  \nThis brief also makes key recommendations to states and districts to support and advance this crucial work, particularly using formula-funded ESSA programs. As students return to their fourth academic year since the initial impact of COVID-19 pandemic—which has had devastating impacts on every facet of student learning—it is imperative that educators and families continue to strengthen their relationships to support students’ academic, social, and emotional needs.  \nTHE RESEARCH  \nOver the past two decades, studies have consistently demonstrated the positive impact of parent and caregiver engagement on students’ academic achievement and social and emotional development ( Fan & Chen, 2001; Fan, 2001; Henderson & Mapp, 2002; Jeynes, 2005; Sheridan et al., 2019) . Positive outcomes of schools regularly engaging parents as partners in their children’s education include improved academic performance, improved mental health, increased student engagement, and reduced school dropout rates (Christenson & Reschly, 2010; Garbacz et al., 2015; Sheridan et al., 2019; Wang & SheikhKhalil, 2014) . In addition to being children’s first teachers, family members also reinforce what children are learning at school and both model and support the development of important relationship and social skills (Cripps & Zyromski, 2009; Mishna & Muskat, 2004; and Mendez, 2010).These findings demonstrate the ways in which effective teacher-parent communication and strong school-family partnerships are vital to student learning ( Epstein, 2018; Garbacz et al., 2015; Patrikakou et al., 2005) .  \n[casel.org](casel.org 1)[ 1](casel.org 1)  \nSUPPORTING PARENT AND FAMILY ENGAGEMENT TO ENHANCE STUDENTS’ ACADEMIC, SOCIAL, AND EMOTIONAL LEARNING  \nResearch also suggests that evidence-based social and emotional learning programs become more powerful when they are embedded in a school-family partnership framework. Such frameworks reinforce the complementary roles of families and educators and extend opportunities for learning across the key developmental contexts of home and family (Albright & Weissberg, 2010) . In other words, social, emotional, and academic skill sets are enhanced when they are mutually supported and reinforced at home and at school.  \nInformed by this understanding, the CASEL framework emphasizes the importance of establishing equitable learning environments and coordinating practices across four key ","cbCailycRrNrmKuB","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCailycRrNrmKuB","pdf",403944,13,"English","# The role of parent and family engagement\n## Collaborative partnerships and complementary strategies\n# Evidence from research on engagement outcomes\n## Academic achievement and social-emotional development\n# CASEL framework and authentic partnerships\n## Four settings: classrooms, schools, homes, communities\n# Using ESSA to strengthen family engagement\n## Recommendations for states and districts","[{\"question\":\"Why is parent and caregiver engagement critical for students’ development?\",\"answer\":\"The brief explains that parents and caregivers directly support students’ academic, social, and emotional growth and that families are essential for implementing high-quality social and emotional learning.\"},{\"question\":\"What research findings link family engagement to student outcomes?\",\"answer\":\"Studies cited show positive effects on academic achievement and social-emotional development, including improved performance, improved mental health, increased engagement, and reduced dropout rates.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the CASEL framework connect families to social and emotional learning?\",\"answer\":\"CASEL emphasizes equitable learning environments and coordinated practices across classrooms, schools, homes, and communities, highlighting “authentic partnerships” between educators and families.\"}]","Supporting Parent and Family Engagement to Enhance Students’ Academic, Social, and Emotional Learning | PDF",1792048847,33]
