Global GPS: Family Perceptions of Navigating School in New Contexts
​
The purpose of this study is to explore transitioning family members' (specifically immigrant and refugee families) perceptions of their school experience outside the parent's home culture to gain insight into how they navigate getting their children into schools and engage with the schools.
Building upon a successful pilot study, this study continues to meet with immigrant and refugee families sitting together to listen to them describe their navigation of their children's schooling.
