Community Partnerships
As a Community School, we strive to be a hub of resources for our school and neighborhood. We focus on three priority areas, which were developed through a thorough needs and assets assessment involving all of our stakeholders:
- Basic Needs (school supplies, food, winter clothing, and holiday supports)
- Healthy Relationships (among students, families, and staff)
- Well-Rounded Learning (in the areas of physical education, outdoor learning, the arts, and science)
You can read more about our priority areas in our coordination plan.
Building partnerships with individuals and organizations in the community is key to making Lake View a welcoming and effective place to learn, grow, and thrive together. We are excited to share with you the robust work we are doing to provide many wrap-around services that our students, families, staff, and community need so they need to be successful in school and life!
We partner with over 85 organizations and over 100 individuals every year to support our Community School priorities. A full list of partnerships and descriptions can be found here.
