Paula Cole believes that our public-school systems are failing our children – and now is the time for teachers and parents to come together to eliminate educational and disciplinary inequities in our schools. Paula will discuss opportunities for educators and families to collaborate, advocate and ultimately hold school districts and legislators accountable for the wellbeing and academic success of young people. She argues that we need to change the narrative around parent engagement, particularly for lower-income and BIPOC families, and provide culturally relevant tools for all families to become powerful agents of change for education excellence.
