What is Community Education?
Community Education offers a structured, effective way to respond to the challenge to improve public
education because it expands the school's traditional role and creates a mutually interdependent relationship
among home, school, and community. Community Education believes in lifelong learning opportunities
(birth to senior citizens), community involvement in schools, and the betterment of individuals and families.
