Woodcraft Rangers

What a blast at #BOOSTConference in Palm Springs 🌞🌴, reconnecting with familiar faces and meeting new ones!!! 🤩   We had jam-packed sessions, diving into the importance of a whole child approach, crafting inclusive programs, ensuring staffing stability, and building intentional partnerships with ELO-P to create impactful programs that truly empower students, engage families, and uplift school communities!   And let’s not forget the excitement in the exhibit hall (with axe throwing!), and all the singing and dancing at the cabana! 🎵   Thank you BOOST, for an unforgettable time! Can’t wait to do it all over again next year! 😎   #BOOSTconference #afterschoolmatters BOOST Collaborative Julee Baber Brooks Andrés De La Peza Eliana Mancilla Cassandra Arechiga Javier Gonzalez Robert Illingworth Helen Santos Melvin Bonilla Zelaya Barbara K.

At Woodcraft Rangers, we know that when families are involved, students feel more motivated, supported, and connected to their learning journey. 🌟 Our South Gate region Site Coordinators & Community Liaisons recently completed our comprehensive training program, Foundations for Family Engagement, led by Miriam Plascenica! Through in-depth sessions, they’ve gained valuable insights & tools in emotional intelligence, communication strategies, and relationship building. Now, they’re ready to strengthen partnerships with families to continue cultivating a supportive environment where students can truly thrive! #FamilyEngagement #CommunityPartnerships
