EDUCATION – States findings of the Legislature, declares that the community school strategy is a proven approach to student success and stronger communities, and encourages continued collaboration among schools, families, and community partners to expand and sustain community school efforts in Idaho.

This bill is a concurrent resolution that formally recognizes community schools as an effective method for improving student outcomes and strengthening communities in Idaho. It encourages ongoing cooperation between schools, families, and local organizations to grow and maintain these programs across the state. The resolution highlights that community schools operate as neighborhood hubs offering integrated health services and expanded learning opportunities through four key areas: student support, extended learning time, family involvement, and collaborative leadership. While it does not change laws or allocate funding, it serves as an official legislative endorsement of the current community school model already in use at 65 schools throughout Idaho.
