What is a... Community
SCHOOL?
A community school is a place, but it is also a partnership of the school, community-based organizations, and other resources. Schools become centers of the community -open to children, parents, and community members before, during, after the school day, and even on evenings and weekends. Community schools do not follow a specific program; they represent a shared strategy among partners and stakeholders to achieve common goals for the children of the school and their community.
What are the Eastside Community Schools? Children & Families First is the lead partner in three Eastside Wilmington community schools: Bancroft, ElbertPamer, and Stubbs Elementary Schools. Together, we work with the schools, community partners, and others to improve and enhance student learning, strengthen parents and families, and build a healthier, more engaged community
