Family and Community Engagement
Introduction
Welcome to the Family and Community Engagement page. The City School District of New Rochelle commits to fostering a trusting and collaborative environment that honors the multiple perspectives, histories, cultures, and hopes for our students, families, and community at large. Through authentic, inclusive, and engaging experiences, we will contribute to educating and nurturing the whole child as empowered change agents.
The City School District of New Rochelle recognizes the connection between student success, family and community engagement as a key lever for student success.
We have two primary goals. First, we intend to strengthen home-school connections by finding ways to engage parents and strengthen our outreach efforts. Second, we will increase our partnerships with community agencies and organizations to strategically support students and families across our district.

Working Together
We are excited to continue to engage and empower our families to be co-partners in educating students
This year we are rolling out a multi-tiered approach that includes:
a variety of school-based engagement events;
parent leadership liaisons at each school community, and
workshops designed to support families by providing additional information on topics requested by families
district sub-committees where parents will be encouraged to share their input and voice
We look forward to creating family engagement social events to invite our school community to gather around food, music, dance, and cultural festivities.
Events will be held on campuses and in various spaces around the community. These events will be shared with families and updated on our district’s website.
Please see below to see our comprehensive list of events, which will be continuously updated.
