Navigating the Narrative
The toolkit’s main chapters contain the same four sections: 1) a segment introduction; 2) clear steps and sample tools to aid your work; 3) questions to ask as you move along; and 4) a resource list for learning more.
This publication offers communities a comprehensive set of tools — tips, references, stories, worksheets and more — aimed at helping neighborhoods hold schools accountable for student achievement. Initially designed for Annie E. Casey’s Making Connections initiative, the toolkit operates as a companion piece for the Foundation’s Building More Effective Community Schools guide.
The goal: Create better schools and increase academic outcomes for children. The game plan? Distill the experiences of other communities into step-by-step tips, clear strategies and concrete examples that make it easy for residents to get reforms rolling.
