    2021/2022 Business Partnership Commitment

    Business & Community Partner relationships are ongoing throughout the year and typically involve an entire school. Regular communication, mutual objectives and specific outcomes are part of these relationships. Partnerships match community resources to identified needs of the individual schools. Schools, in turn provide resources to meet identified needs of a particular partner such as a business or community group. These partnerships have proven to be extremely beneficial to student success.
     
    School or Classroom Partnerships are designed for businesses or organizations to become involved in a particular classroom or school sponsored event.
