School Voice Reading List

This month we’re celebrating School Voice—the culmination of all stakeholders in a school working together as full partners in students’ education. School Voice encompasses Student Voice, Teacher Voice, Principal Voice, and Parent Voice. Our School Voice work was built by Russ Quaglia, who has researched the importance of student voice for over 30 years. Be sure to read our Q&A with Russ today to learn more about it!

Throughout the month of June, we’ll be focusing each week on a different aspect of School Voice. Every day this month we’ll feature blog posts written by School Voice experts and, of course, the voices of each stakeholder group!

Here’s the schedule:

• June 1-3: School Voice
• June 6-10: Student Voice
• June 13-17: Teacher Voice
• June 20-24: Principal Voice
• June 27-30: Parent Voice

Please be sure to come back each day for our daily post, or subscribe to our weekly newsletter!
