Choosing A Communication Platform For School-home Engagement: A Buyer’s Guide

Choosing the right communication platform for your organization requires considering the needs of every stakeholder in your community, from everyone who needs to send home information to everyone who
needs to engage with it. In order to support student and family engagement—crucial to key outcomes like attendance, graduation rates, and academic achievement—school-home communication has to be effective, equitable, and engaging. Administrators, teachers, and staff members need a communication platform that’s simple to use, compatible with their specific uses and workflows, and successful at reaching students and families. Both the Title I coordinator collecting lunch forms and the soccer coach
rescheduling a rained-out practice need a solution that lets them not only send out important information, but generate and manage responses as well.

Questions to consider :

  • How do you enable two-way communication?
  • How do you support equitable communication?
  • How do you integrate other tools and systems?
  • Will stakeholders in your organization adopt and use the platform?
