DESCRIPTION:
鈥淐ommunity Schools鈥 are public schools that emphasize family engagement and are characterized by strong partnerships and additional supports for students and families designed to counter environmental factors that impede student achievement. Fundamentally, Community schools coordinate and maximize public, non鈥恜rofit and private resources to deliver critical services to students and their families, thereby increasing student achievement and generating other positive outcomes.听 Eligible school districts target school buildings as 鈥榗ommunity hubs鈥 to deliver co鈥恖ocated or school鈥恖inked academic, health, mental health, nutrition, counseling, legal and/or other services to students and their families in a manner that will lead to improved educational and other outcomes.
