Community Schools

Renaissance at Mathson is a community school that receives funding under the California Department of Education (CDE) California Community Schools Partnership Program (CCSPP). 

“A community schools strategy transforms a school into a place where educators, local community members, families, and students work together to strengthen conditions for student learning and healthy development” (Community Schools Forward).
