Goal of the Community Tours

Our goal is to level the playing field for families by providing information, resources, and supports that strengthen engagement, remove barriers, and empower students to succeed. Each tour highlights topics that matter most to our community and connects families with the tools and partnerships they need to thrive.

By hosting events in different areas and formats throughout the year, the tour ensures families have equitable access to learning, dialogue, and community resources in welcoming spaces.
