THE MODEL

“Cooperation is the air and water of the education ecosystem. Without it, the system will not thrive.”  Pamela Teague, Link ED Solutions

We strongly believe that schools do best when their local community of superintendents, principals, teachers, staff, parents, businesses, support services, and concerned citizens join forces. Many of our public schools face enormous pressures and find it difficult to create a robust and active coalition in order to succeed. 

The Cooperative School and Community Model is one that depends on everyone in the school community, regardless of group affiliation, to collectively pool and deliver their best efforts. Let’s go back to the basics when we functioned together as neighbors, caring citizens, and enlightened businesses that acted on the idea that “every child matters.”

A Cooperative School and Community needs all community members to:

  1. Contribute their skills and talents for the development of students.
  2. Feel valued and acknowledged.
  3. Ensure students are held to high standards and are successful academically and socially.
  4. Engage respectfully with others when dealing with issues and problems.
  5. Practice listening skills and consider the pros and cons of each discussion.
  6. Promote the importance of positive civic engagement.
