At KIPP Atlanta Schools, family engagement is at the heart of everything we do. We know that when families, caregivers, and schools work together, our scholars thrive. That’s why our Family Engagement program is designed to equip parents, guardians, and caregivers with the resources, tools, and knowledge needed to support each scholar’s academic, social, and emotional growth.

Family Liaisons and Family Quarterbacks work together to build real connections between families and schools. Family Liaisons, our dedicated team members, welcome new families, share timely school updates, and coordinate events to nurture engagement and meet Title I goals. Family Quarterbacks—parent volunteer leaders—amplify family voice, organize activities, and help guide school decisions. This partnership ensures every family feels informed, supported, and empowered through every stage of the scholar journey.
