Inhaltsangabe

In a growing number of neighborhoods and school districts across the U.S., a community schools revolution is transforming public education for the better and providing a strategy for helping to tackle our country's most serious problems, including extreme inequality and racial injustice.

The community school strategy encourages deep partnerships among schools, families, and communities. Schools become hubs of learning, opportunity, engagement, and democracy. The result has been marked improvement in academic achievement and student and family well-being. These proven outcomes have led to the dramatic expansion of community schools, including major investments at the local, state, and federal levels.

The Community Schools Revolution tells the story of the powerful transformation that is occurring in thousands of schools. The authors, who are pioneers in the field, describe how a national movement has supported the growth and development of this work across the country. Six case studies - New York City, Florida, Albuquerque, Oakland, Los Angeles, Cincinnati - highlight the practical steps to transform schools and demonstrate the power of community schools to change lives.

This book provides inspiration, evidence, and a compelling case for community schools to be at the center of our education landscape. To read the book for free, please visit www.communityschools.org
