With public demand for community schools on the rise, this timely book provides an empowering, step-by-step approach for school leaders to cultivate community school practices within their schools while simultaneously engaging in the policy advocacy process. This is an actionable toolkit with practical advice, helpful checklists and inventories, as well as real examples from rural and urban schools. Drawing from the experiences of real school leaders involved in community school initiatives, this book illuminates the promise of community schools as centers of the community and sites accessible beyond regular school hours. Community schools bring together educators, local community members, families, and students to provide partnerships that strengthen conditions for student learning and healthy development. Making Community Schools a Reality is a timely and comprehensive resource that helps educational leaders improve learning outcomes and promote equity in their schools.
