community school
Local public institution
A community school is a public school that serves as a neighborhood hub, offering not just education but also social services, health care, and family support programs.
The model integrates academic instruction with wraparound services—after-school programs, adult education, mental health counseling—often in partnership with local organizations.
The community school keeps its doors open until 8 p.m. for tutoring and parent workshops.
