Feedback from Family Engagement Professional Development participants:
“This workshop was chock full of useful information and the strategies and activities will be wonderful to use in working with my families.”
“As teachers, we use multiple strategies to meet the needs of individual children. If one doesn’t work, we try another. Each child is different. I learned from the GFS training that it’s the same with family engagement. We need to try different strategies with parents to successfully engage them.”
“We learned a lot about childcare, we made new friends who were very nice and the whole team taught us a lot.”
