Community Education Program
As a method of extending educational opportunities to the entire community through a fuller utilization of school facilities, a community schools’ program may be established. The district is encouraged to include programs for prospective parents, foster parents, and adoptive parents on parenting skills, violence prevention, and the problems of child abuse and prevention of child abuse. The program will be financed primarily by federal or state funds, participation fees, contributions, or some combination these sources.
The superintendent will establish and periodically present to the board for review, an organizational plan and tentative program that will assure that the program is responsive to the varying needs of citizens living in different sections of the community.
