AN EXAMINATION OF THE OPPORTUNITIES AND OBSTACLES OF PARENT ENGAGEMENT

Abstract Details

2018, Doctor of Education (Ed.D.), University of Findlay, Education.
The purpose of this qualitative study was to find the opportunities, obstacles, and general experiences of school administrators, parents, and community regarding parent engagement. This study used a qualitative method of inquiry to examine engagement practices including district artifacts such as social media and focus groups. The data gathered from focus group interviews was analyzed through Epstein’s six-tiered typology framework. Findings of this research demonstrated important points considering relationships and open communication which may help school leaders better understand the functions of parent engagement in their communities and point to specific practices to maximize the engagement between their institutions and stakeholders.
