Featured Continuum Practice - Minneapolis Public Schools Parent Participatory Evaluation

Minneapolis Public Schools trained fifty one parents, representing five culturally-specific groups: 9 African American, 9 American Indian, 9 Hispanic/Latino, 10 Hmong, and 14 Somali parents, to gather input from families who may be less inclined to share their perspectives with the school district. The Parent Evaluators then share their findings with the district. 

More information about their efforts can be found here.
