Community Schools

What is a Community School

As a school we would like to work together with families and community members to create a safe, supportive spaces where students have what they need to learn, families are partners and have what they need to thrive, and communities benefit from stronger, healthier and more informed people.

How we are doing this work

We will use the whole child approach to education where we care for more than the students academic learning, we are supporting their social-emotional, physical, and mental well-being too. We will meet the needs of our children such as: food insecurity, mental health support, clothing, housing, health screenings, and additional learning support.
