Academic Parent Teacher Teams
What are Academic Parent Teacher Teams?
An innovative approach to family engagement, the Academic Parent-Teacher Teams provides schools with a developmental and collaborative process to build effective family-school partnerships. WestEd's APTT is a classroom-based, teacher-led, data-driven family engagement model.
APTT is grounded in the notion that schools can thrive when families and teachers work together, as genuine partners, to maximize student learning inside and outside the school. Its research-based infrastructure is rooted in aligning curriculum, instruction, and assessment as it builds the capacity of educators, families, and the community to advance student achievement by linking home and school learning. The APTT model supplements the efforts of traditional parent conferences with whole-class meetings where parents learn exactly where their child is in comparison to academic standards, where their child needs to be by the end of the school year, and how they can help support their child's learning outside of the classroom. |
