Community School

What is a Community School?

A Community School is a community hub - both a place and a set of Partner ships between the school and other community resources. Its integrated focus on academics, health and social services, youth and community development and community engagement leads to improved student learning, stronger families and healthier communities. Community schools offer a personalized curriculum that emphasizes real-world learning and community problem solving. Schools become centers of the community and are open to everyone - all day, every day, evenings and weekends.
