Your Morning Boost - Tapping Motivation: The Key to Lasting Parent Engagement with Shaka Mitchell
On this final episode of our week-long series, Your Morning Boost host and guest Shaka Mitchell, a senior fellow with the American Federation for Children, bring it all together. After exploring "the goal of the goal," "studying the bright spots," and "starting with a burst," Shaka introduces the final, crucial step: "tapping motivation." Using the classic story of Tom Sawyer, he illustrates how making parent engagement desirable rather than a burden is the key to creating a powerful and lasting partnership. Shaka encourages school leaders to reframe engagement as a service, not a chore, by considering what parents and students genuinely want, such as finding allies in the parenting process or sharing their lives with teachers. Tune in for the final piece of the puzzle and learn how to foster a school community where everyone is motivated to participate.
