As one of the Community Schools Coordinators, my primary responsibility is to build strong, collaborative partnerships between the school and the surrounding community, serving the whole student. This means working closely with school staff, families, local organizations, and service providers to identify student and family needs and then coordinating the resources and supports necessary to meet those needs. I help ensure that students have access to academic, social, emotional, and health-related services that enable them to thrive both inside and outside the classroom. By fostering a welcoming, inclusive school environment and promoting active family and community engagement, I aim to create a school culture where every student feels seen, supported, and empowered to succeed.
