DATA POINT: District and Local School Partnership Data

OVERVIEW 

Partnerships link programs and activities to student learning and play a vital role in the school improvement plan. Our partnerships increase the connection within a community; create support, trust, and respect; and increase the quality of teaching and learning in the schools. The collaborative approach can be unique to the school’s community and may change over time as the community grows and evolves. Partnerships provide opportunities for involvement in community schools and for businesses to support public education. School partners find that these relationships create access to a broader spectrum of caring community members.

Successful partnerships rely on consistent communication between schools and their partners. Additionally, there must be adequate resources and support from top-level leadership, opportunities for volunteers to work directly with students, committed and dedicated people, a shared vision with identified goals, recognition to volunteers and school staff, and regular evaluations of the partnerships.
