Follow Up on Your Event

After you have successfully launched an America Goes Back to School event, it is critical that you follow up on your efforts.

Complete the evaluation process to find out what people liked and what could be improved for next year.
Maintain contact with community partners to continue your work in education throughout the school year. Family and community support must be tended and nurtured, and the need for it will not go away. It will become easier, though, as more community members participate and share the responsibilities of your project.
Finally, implement your plan for long-term involvement through tutoring or mentoring programs, family- and student-friendly business policies, or your partnership’s program for concentrating its efforts.
