Aldine ISD Hosts Fall Family Conference

On Saturday, Nov. 5, Aldine ISD’s Family and Community Engagement (FACE) Department hosted its Fall Family Conference at Davis High School. The event was attended by approximately 200 families of the district, all of which came out to learn more about the various opportunities that FACE provides for students and families.

In addition to the 200 families, 21 district partners came out to the event to share information about what their organizations offer. In addition, participants were treated to a performance of “ballet Folklorico Ketzally” from a local group.

The event was separated into two sections, two breakout sessions and a community partner session. During the breakout sessions, families took part in activities, while their children were entertained during the session and provided drawing kits. The sessions were available in both Spanish and English, so families were able to engage in the language of their preference.

Once the breakout sessions ended, families returned to the front greeting area, where they were able to engage with various community partners. Families were able to move throughout Davis High School and learn more about the various organizations who attended the event. The event concluded with a wrap up of the community partners. In addition, families who attended the Conference were provided a gift option of a 10-, 20-or 30-lb weighted blanket. 

Aldine ISD is always looking for more ways to engage, and empower district families.
