What is a Community School?
Webinar
Governor Newsom has allocated $3 billion in the state budget for 2021-22 to help expand existing community schools and establish new ones, and the CFT is excited to announce the launch of our community schools training program.
Our initial training is designed to give preK-12 union leaders a brief overview and understanding of community schools as well as the capacity to assess your current school climate and determine if it would be a good candidate to become a community school.
