The Third Edition of this Handbook, like previous editions, draws upon work conducted with thousands of educators and families over the past five years. It includes new and improved research summaries, tools, and guidelines for leaders in schools, districts, states, and organizations to increase their knowledge and skills in developing their partnership programs. This edition includes:

  • New article on how partnership practices help produce specific results for students (Chapter 1)
  • New examples of successful partnership activities in elementary, middle, and high schools. (Chapter 2)
  • Improved workshop agendas and activities, with increased attention to connecting family and community involvement to goals for student success (Chapters 4 and 5)
  • New inventories to guide district leaders and state leaders in developing their leadership roles and actions on partnerships. (Chapter 7)
  • New chapter on how to evaluate school-base partnership programs and updated evaluation forms and guidelines (Chapter 9)
  • Clearer guidelines and updated references in all chapters.
  • A CD (attached) with a PowerPoint presentation for team-training workshops, and electronic copies of all workshop handouts, activities, planning forms, and evaluations. The CD also includes Spanish translations of selected materials for Latino parents who participate in workshops and in other audiences.
