The Community Schools Incentive Initiative program was created by the Community Schools Incentive Initiative Act of 2012 () and provided funding, administered by the ÎÚÑ»´«Ã½ of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE), to grantees to create community schools.
A “community school” is a public and private partnership to coordinate educational, developmental, family, health and after-school-care programs during school and non-school hours for students, families and local communities at a public school or public charter school with the objectives of improving academic achievement, reducing absenteeism, building stronger relationships between students, parents and communities and improving the skills, capacity and well-being of the surrounding community residents.
