Bill Text

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1.

 The Legislature finds and declares all of the following:

(a) Research has found that community school strategies hold considerable promise for creating good schools for all pupils, especially for those who live in poverty.

(b) Community schools bring educators and community partners together to create high-quality schools with an integrated approach to academics, health and social services, youth and community development, and community engagement.

(c) Research has also found that well-implemented community schools lead to improvement in pupil and school outcomes and contribute to meeting the educational needs of low-achieving pupils in high-poverty schools.

(d) Community schools build partnerships between the school and other local entities, including institutions of higher education, governmental health and social service agencies, and community-based nonprofits.

(e) These partnerships intentionally create structures, strategies, and relationships to provide learning conditions and opportunities, both in school and outside of school.
