Activities and Books to Engage in with Your Child

As part of our students' journey to adulthood, we value our partnerships with families and caregivers. The National Center for Families Learning reported, "Outside of the instructional environment, family engagement is one of the most important factors impacting student success." Therefore, we want families and caregivers present at Binet. However, if you can't make our monthly activities, here are some resources to engage your child at home.
