Riverside USD's Community Engagement Problem of Practice
EQUITY CONCERN
Our district has community engagement activities in various parts of our district, but we seek to invest in equity-based best practices to systematically incorporate engagement as a key element of how we support every student and family.
STRATEGY
With the creation of the Equity, Access & Community Engagement Division, we are prioritizing family and community engagement as fundamental to closing opportunity gaps for all students.
