Fostering Collaboration between Schools and Urban Communities - 4 views

  •  
    I got ahead of myself and posted before I highlighted or captured...i'll have to experiment more closely with Diigo on my next post! I thought this article was interesting because it adds the community component to urban school reform. "Community-based organizations that deal with issues such as housing, health, and regeneration would profit from partnering with schools and working together to improve the lot and the education of children living in these areas as a means of benefiting both schools and the community." This intrigued me as it is a reminder if a child's basic needs are not being met (shelter, health, etc) then school is going to be on the back burner. This collaboration between school and community seems to be a piece to the reform puzzle.
