Mission Statement
Phildelphia's 20 Community Schools aim to remove barriers to learning and support the success of each student. The long-term goal of Community Schools is to ensure that every student graduates college- and career-ready, and that communities are healthy, safe, hopeful, and supportive. In each Community School, a Community School Coordinator supports strategic partnerships and programs that promote wellness, stability, and learning opportunities for students, families, and neighbors.
Description
The Office of Children and Families has many upcoming volunteer opportunities. Tasks include supporting grocery giveaways and food pantries at Community Schools, serving as a Philadelphia Reading Coach (Fall 2024), and assisting adult learners through the Adult Education Program.
