Parents who attended a Wake County parent involvement event at the McKimmon Center had the chance to talk with Dr. Karen Mapp, a lecturer on education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Her research and practice expertise is in the areas of educational leadership and educational partnerships among schools, families and community members.
Mapp co-authored the book "Beyond the Bake Sale: The Essential Guide to Family - School Partnerships" published by The New Press in 2007.
