Partnership in Education

WHAT IS A PARTNERSHIP IN EDUCATION? A partnership is a relationship between family, school and community members where all parties have: Equal Status Specific Roles Responsibilities to Each Other “In a partnership, educators, families, and community members work together to share information, guide students, solve problems, and celebrate successes. Partnerships recognize the shared responsibilities of home, school, and community for children’s learning and development.” - Dr. Joyce Epstein, National Network of Partnership Schools
