Family Liaisons & Family Quarterbacks

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.
