Are there indicators of improved school/community interactions?
These might include such indicators as improved parental involvement (more parents involved from all sectors of the school community) and greater business involvement (contributions of time, personnel, expertise, equipment and/or expertise). Another indication could be evidence of developing collaborative relationships (summer, part-time, or graduate hiring or internships) among students and teachers with local businesses and industries. Projects might demonstrate that they provide valued service to the community in a variety of ways.
