Community Schools are based on partnerships between the school and public and private community organizations and institutions. Their goal is to direct resources and relationships toward achieving specific results with youth, families, and the community.

These schools have demonstrated long-term positive effects on the educational success and the physical, social, and emotional health of young people. Students live and learn in an environment that is safer, more stable, and more supportive. These communities become great places to live in.
