Engagement
The Engagement Department builds the capacity of MPS schools, staff, families, students and the community to establish partnerships that strengthen student learning and improve schools.
Our office includes our network of family liaisons, who facilitate communication between schools and families, and staff at MPS family resource centers, where information on services and programs supporting parenting and family assistance is provided.
