The South Dakota Statewide Family Engagement Center (SFEC) has announced the participants for its second cohort of Family Engagement Champions.
About the Family Engagement Champions Program
Over the course of five months, this cohort of school staff from across South Dakota will convene to learn about the power of true school and family partnerships, reflect on current practices in their work environments, and create activities that facilitate school, family, and community engagement. Participants will grow to become Family Engagement Champions, while creating lasting and professional friendships with other cohort members. For more information, go to sdsfec.org/fechamps.
