Commitment to Engagement with Communities and Schools

Woodring College of Education collaborates with our constituents in communities and schools to create and sustain exemplary partnerships that support the learning and well-being of children and families.

We meet this commitment to engagement with communities and schools through the Community Action Grants program, our resources and centers that serve the larger community, the integration of service learning into all of our academic programs, and partnerships with community agencies and P-12 schools.
