Family Engagement

San José Unified believes that family engagement is an essential component in the educational success of students. Our Office of Family Engagement provides capacity-building opportunities such as classes and workshops that build on the knowledge base and experiences that families bring with them. These learning opportunities are linked to student learning and offer a way for us to establish a positive, collaborative relationship with every family.

Contact the Family Engagement department at 408-535-6404 ext. 14303.

Family Liaisons

Our Family Liaisons help us promote classes and other engagement programs to San José Unified families. You will see them at principal’s coffees and other school site events, as well as maintaining office bulletin boards and other resources for learning about family engagement programs.
