Seek Common Ground Family Guides

This video introduces K-12 Family Guides, created by Seek Common Ground in collaboration with experts at Student Achievement Partners, to help families--and those that support families-- understand more about what students should know and be able to do by the end of each grade in literacy and math. This information, and tips and strategies for engaging kids and working in partnership with teachers, is especially important now as families support their children during the Covid-19 pandemic.
