Abstract
This study investigates leadership strategies that fostered family-school-community partnerships in the equity-focused school-based Model Schools for Inner Cities initiative in Toronto, Canada. Descriptive analysis of parent focus group and school administrator interview qualitative data explored leadership strategies to foster school-family-community partnerships at two schools located in ethno-culturally diverse, equity-deserving Toronto communities. Seven promising leadership practices and strategies were revealed, including: (1) creating a welcoming physical and social school environment, (2) fostering a culture of care, (3) communicating with families, (4) encouraging parent leadership and advocacy, (5) having leadership presence in the community, (6) establishing the school as a social and cultural broker, and (7) leveraging community partnerships and administrator's personal social capital to address systemic inequities. This research highlights the voices of Canadian families and school leaders, revealing that in marginalized communities, leadership efforts to foster family-school-community partnerships play a key role in enhancing equity and justice in education.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
