Are there different models of community schools?
“Community school” is an inclusive term used to describe a number of frameworks for the coordination of school-community partnerships. There are many excellent models of community schools, including Beacons, Bridges to Success, The Children’s Aid Society community schools, Communities in Schools, Healthy Start, Schools of the 21st Century and University-Assisted community schools. All of these groups are active members of the national Coalition for Community Schools.
