In partnership with TNTP, Learning Heroes launched The Engagement Advantage to examine how family-school partnerships relate to student attendance and academic outcomes. The first stage of this mixed-methods study found that schools with stronger pre-pandemic family engagement experienced significantly lower chronic absenteeism and higher academic performance post-pandemic — with family engagement showing a stronger relationship to absenteeism than poverty.

The second stage identified the specific leadership practices, mindsets, and communication strategies that distinguish “bright spot” schools serving similar communities — offering a practical roadmap for states, districts, and schools seeking to strengthen partnerships and improve student outcomes.
