As part of a series of learning sessions focused on creating transformative, racially just and relationship-centered community schools, the California Partnership for the Future of Learning hosted its second session: Staffing for School Transformation: The Role of the Community School Coordinator on April 27, 2022. This session was focused on highlighting the pivotal role that community school coordinators play in advancing school transformation, and the systems, structures, and practices needed for community school coordinators to support a transformational culture of change.
As part of the design of these learning sessions, we tap into the wisdom and experience of a broad cross-section of experts—from students and families, to educators, organizers, community partners, and researchers. The following background materials, session recordings, and presentation slides in English, Spanish and Arabic are aimed at providing additional resources for communities engaging in the process of creating and sustaining transformative community schools.
