Inclusion Series- Aligning Parental Engagement with the Pyramid Model

Introduction

This issue of NASET’s Inclusion series was written by Monica I. Floreani. The analysis of meaningful family engagement in the context of early childhood education draws on the conceptual framework of the Pyramid Model (Hemmeter et al., 2021). To promote a shared understanding of student needs and improve academic, social-emotional, and behavioral outcomes, the Pyramid Model relies on a strong family-school relationship. A lack of meaningful parental engagement, however, can delay or halt the process of delivering appropriate interventions and services intended to help students meet their social and academic potential. By understanding the factors that impede the Pyramid Model’s process, multidisciplinary teams working to support students can better align family engagement with the implementation of positive behavioral interventions and supports (Weist et al., 2017).
