National Research Project on Family Engagement in K-12 Schools
Developed in partnership with ClassDojo for Districts
Why your district leader members will care: Family engagement sits at the intersection of almost every priority on a district leader’s plate, and yet, there is very little national research that captures what district leaders are actually experiencing on the ground.

- Purpose: Explores key trends in school-to-home communication and engagement
- Audiences surveyed: Families, Educators, and School and District Administrators
- Survey window: Open through June 12, 2026
