Communites and Schools

Community in Schools organization is a revolutionary system being implemented in the school systems that Americans finds themselves enrolled in. With a more focused view on helping a student reach their goal in life there is a feeling of success. The smaller class sizes, community internships, and more one-on-one teaching occurring in every classroom and performance learning school show the results are going to show success very quickly.

Schools modeled after the Community in Schools standard find themselves as a more focused and in a more structured environment. Students have more time in a single class period to not only plan their work but, to also get an extra half hour to get more work done at school. These procedures result in less work having to be done during after school hours. This benefit could leave a student a more productive evening after school: such as reading required materials, writing papers ahead of schedule, and studying math material being covered in class, or maybe even participating in community sports leagues.

To further complement the academic schedule there is the schools mandatory internships in the community itself. Most students of any age in their high school career have the slightest idea of where they want their life to lead them. These internships in fields that a student thinks they may be interested enough to pursue as a career are truly eye opening experiences into the real world side of any job.

Young adults know that in thinking of their future they can name at least five to ten jobs that they could see themselves holding. All students regardless of type of seal they are attempting for their diploma will want some sort of insight that is usually not presented to them so easily. This program offers is the most realistic approach to a student’s dreams and admirations of their future. These types of expectations given to high school students compared to students fresh out of a four year research institute are highly profitable to be obtained at such an early phase of the education system.

Any student that has just graduated from a four year college will ask themselves what they will do now that they have completed their education. Many say a variety of things in response to the question of where to take life. Continuation of education or maybe a doctorate, these might be some people’s goal at first thought. Others will want to pursue the careers they have been studying to undertake for the past four years of their life. Not all but some of these students will be dissatisfied with the career path they have chosen and assumed was right for them. Communities in Schools has a chance to create a more accurate idea for what type of education one should pursue once entering post high school education facilities.

This connection not only forms a view of an individual’s path in life but also a view into the wide world of networking and how important it is to meet people and creating good impressions on those that you work with. On any level of any job good communication skills and ability to maintain a workplace relationship with co-employees is another valuable tool gained from communities in schools. It also opens doors in young student’s minds to allow them learn from others and their own actions and mistakes. These factors all collaborate together to create a career minded, hard working, fast learning work place with a good goal in mind for their future.
