"When families feel genuinely connected to their school community, they stay, which leads to the enrollment stability that districts desperately need. This white paper shares over two decades of research on the ways that involved families improve students' academic, behavioral, and social outcomes."

"How Strong Family Engagement Builds District Trust explains that classroom-level messaging is foundational to the district's credibility with families. The report also shares best practices that schools have adopted to engage families with ClassDojo, including the success stories of three districts that needed to address a high risk of families pulling students from schools."

ClassDojo's white paper examines how school-family communication strengthens student learning and enrollment stability. The report identifies classroom-level messaging as foundational to district credibility with families. Three districts successfully used ClassDojo to address enrollment challenges: McDowell County Schools resolved confusing communication methods, Moline-Coal Valley School overcame language barriers with diverse communities, and Hamilton Elementary School rebuilt parent-educator relationships post-pandemic.
