Assignment:
National Standards for Family-School Partnerships
Explains the National Standards for Family-school partnerships, as presented by the National PTA.

Review the suggestions for each of the six standards as well as NAEYC's Family Engagement Resource List.
Using your assigned grouping below, explain the two standards and offer at least three suggestions to incorporate these standards in your preschool program. Then, explain why these standards should be the basis for all early childhood programs, and how it they will benefit your students and their families.
