This episode of STEMwire Live spotlights how community schools and community colleges serve the financial, emotional and educational needs of students. Community schools offer integrated focus on academics, health and social services, youth and community development and community engagement with the goal of supporting improved student learning, stronger families and healthier communities. In many ways, community colleges were designed to serve as educational and support hubs for adult learners as well. During Part 1 of Applying Lesson Learned from Community Schools and Community Colleges we gained an understanding of community schools and the current research on the topic. Part 2 focuses on examples of success, resources for students and inside perspective on next steps for legislators and school leaders.
