Background: Families play a vital role in the education of their children. Milwaukee Public Schools works with families and staff to ensure they have the tools to be equal partners in supporting student achievement and school improvement. Providing families opportunities to serve as leaders helps foster positive relationships between the school, student, and parent or guardian.

The role of the Parent Coordinators is multi-faceted. They focus on strengthening the family-school relationship while actively engaging in the school's improvement plan. This report will focus on the successful efforts at Browning School led by the parent coordinator to develop a Family Leadership Organization (FLO), to keep families informed and ensure they have an opportunity to share their voice and provide valuable input.
