Description¶
California's state-approved community-schools framework, administered through the California Department of Education, organizes grantee implementation and reporting around four areas and 16 features for whole-child school transformation.
Components¶
- Community schools four-pillar whole-child framework: The report describes community schools as an evidence-based strategy in which students, families, educators, and community partners organize in- and out-of-school resources, aiming to "improve learning conditions and support the well-being of students, families, and communities through four core pillars of integrated student supports, expanded learning opportunities, collaborative leadership, and family engagement." California's state-approved CCSPP framework extends this into four areas (pillars, key conditions for learning, cornerstone commitments, proven practices) broken into 16 features that grantees align to. The framework functions as a design anchor for transformative systems change rather than isolated service expansion. (Swain et al. (2025))
