Community Schools
What is Community Schools?
South Whittier School District serves over 2,000+ students, their families, and their guardians. As part of the Community Schools Movement, we believe that students and families thrive when we work together.
Community Schools are built on a simple idea: Schools become stronger when they partner with families, staff, and the community to meet the whole needs of every student.
This means we focus on:
Strong relationships with students, families, and staff
Support services that remove barriers to learning
Family engagement and leadership
Enrichment and learning opportunities beyond the school day
Collaboration between the school, district, and community partners
El Distrito Escolar South Whittier atiende a más de 2,000 estudiantes, sus familias y tutores. Como parte del Movimiento de Escuelas Comunitarias, creemos que los estudiantes y las familias prosperan cuando trabajamos juntos.
Las Escuelas Comunitarias se basan en una idea simple: las escuelas se fortalecen cuando colaboran con las familias, el personal y la comunidad para satisfacer las necesidades integrales de cada estudiante.
Esto significa que nos enfocamos en:
Relaciones sólidas con estudiantes, familias y personal
Servicios de apoyo que eliminan las barreras del aprendizaje
Participación y liderazgo familiar
Oportunidades de enriquecimiento y aprendizaje más allá de la jornada escolar
Colaboración entre la escuela, el distrito y los socios comunitarios
