Schools create welcoming environments for families and take advantage of community resources to enrich the civic life of the school. The staff of a school welcomes, values, and incorporates families and the larger community into inclusive schools and classrooms. Schools have a commitment to build strong partnerships with business and community-based organizations that enrich the school and the entire school community.
