EDUC-6390: Rethinking Schools As Community Partners Investigation

Schools are centers of their communities. Their vitality, relevance and influence depend on how they reflect the needs and interests of the culture and environment. Strategies for responding more meaningfully to the diversity and culture of students, dropping the walls between the school and the neighborhood, are critical. Critical too is cultivating authentic community engagement and civic participation that improves socio-ecological conditions, politics and economy, and increases the resilience and the sustainability of urban communities.
