Duration
15 months
Description
As the larger educational reform conversation shifts from a near-exclusive focus on academics to an understanding that social-emotional learning and a focus on the needs of the whole child are also required for success, more and more districts across the country are becoming interested in community schools as a key reform strategy. In response, Children’s Aid is preparing to relaunch its National Center for Community Schools (NCCS), a practice-based technical assistance center that builds the capacity of schools, districts, and community partners to organize their human and financial resources around student success. Over the past twenty-four years, NCCS has provided technical assistance to 15,000 adaptation sites; their goal continues to be supporting whole school models that provide more effective learning environments for diverse learners, particularly those residing in low-income communities. This grant supports a nine-month strategic planning process for NCCS that will include market research, business planning, and change management.
