Abstract:

This book examines the educational gaps that multilingual students in rural
communities experience. It argues that responsive, successful relationships
between schools and multilingual families are a crucial aspect of all
educators’ work and that no single strategy will work for all families. Rural
multilingual family engagement involves building meaningful partnerships and
relational trust, based on significant knowledge of families' cultures and
language repertoires. Educators can reframe their work by learning from
families and building on the strengths of multilingual families, which are
too-often overlooked in school policies and educator practices. This is the
first book to focus specifically on rural school settings. However, the
conceptual framework of equity and linguistically responsive pedagogy are
applicable across settings for educators who wish to support their
multilingual students and families.
