The Foundry recently completed its latest round of Family Portfolio Nights and started preparing for upcoming academic exhibitions with returning middle school students and their families. School officials invited parents to join in exhibition planning activities that emphasize student milestone and academic goal development. The events were designed to provide an opportunity to review student progress and support collaborative planning between families and school staff. Family engagement programs tied to academic exhibitions are still being used by schools as a way to increase communication about student achievement and long-term learning goals.
