Parent education has long struggled to reach most families, not because parents do not care, but because the traditional formats schools rely on, including parent nights, newsletters, and reading lists, do not reflect how adults actually learn. This session by Isabella Cai of Y Montessori introduces the concept of the Intention Gap, the disconnect between what schools try to teach parents and what parents actually want to know about their own child's daily experience, and presents a validated model of embedded delivery that integrates real Montessori curriculum into the photo-sharing routines teachers already use.

This approach has shown strong engagement across a network of schools, and attendees will leave with a clear framework for understanding why parent engagement efforts often fall short and how to address that, evidence-based insight grounded in adult learning research, and a practical, low-effort model for embedding meaningful content into existing school communication routines to drive lasting family engagement and retention.

As usual, the webinar is free for members and $20 for non-members. All who register will receive the recording, so sign up even if you can’t join live.
