Community Partners in Schools
Service providers who wish to offer programs and services within our schools, to our students, are invited and required to submit an Application for Consideration of an External Agency Collaboration. A central board committee will review each application and consider programs and services that are supplemental to those being provided by school board staff, and are consistent with the Board's stated mission, vision, and values.
The committee will meet on a regular basis to review applications and will communicate committee decisions to each applicant. Upon approval, a Collaboration Agreement will be jointly entered into by the External Agency or Third-Party Service provider and the Board. The services and programs approved will then be listed on this website. Principals will choose services for students from the approved list and will be responsible for the organization and management within the school.
