These Lighted Schools are facilities open to the public for learning opportunities not only during the school day, but also in the evenings, on weekends and during the summer. This is done through partnerships and collaborations between community agencies, organizations, businesses, schools and colleges, civic groups and citizens. Community schools are places where community members can meet to learn, receive services, become involved in their neighborhoods and have fun. School buildings are already located in most neighborhoods and are easy to reach. Schools belong to the public and represent a large public investment.
Schools have excellent resources and professional staffs.
Traditional school hours leave plenty of time for other uses. Each lighted school receives direct input from a volunteer advisory council for programming and activities that best serve the communities where they are situated. Sign up for a class. For current schedules, call the center nearest you. Enroll your child.
