Abstract

School leadership in communicating to parents and students from diverse backgrounds is a problem in education that must be addressed. As the population of the United States is becoming more and more diverse, school administrators must develop new ways to reach their stakeholders. All families must be involved in their children's academic progress in order to make their child successful. In an era of school accountability, school leaders must determine innovative ways to relay vital information and improve the level of school involvement for parents from diverse backgrounds.
