1647 believes that every family wants what is best for their child. When schools build trusting relationships with all families, true school-family partnerships take root that empower all families to support their child's success in school. The 1647 team challenges school leaders and teachers to reimagine family engagement. They train and support educators to implement strategies to build academic partnerships with families, which directly support student success.
“When we launched, one of the focal points of our mission was to align ourselves with organizations, businesses and individuals supporting essential workers,” said Jason Harris, Co-founder of 195essential. “By donating a portion of the sales from our “Essential Teacher” t-shirts to 1647, we are able to help fund their many programs that give educators the tools they need to build academic partnerships with families and better students’ lives.”
