California Community Schools Partnership Program (CCSPP)title
Orland Unified School District is pleased to announce the successful recommendation for funding through the California Community Schools Partnership Program (CCSPP) Implementation Grant. This significant achievement, following extensive collaboration with staff and the community, will provide dedicated resources over five years to support the implementation of Community School initiatives at Mill Street, Fairview, CK Price, and North Valley High School.
These efforts are designed to foster strategic partnerships with local agencies to align community resources with educational objectives, ultimately enhancing student outcomes. The Community Schools model serves students from Transitional Kindergarten through 12th grade through a whole-child approach, potentially encompassing academics, health and social services, youth development, and career training programs, guided by identified community needs.
Orland Unified School District is committed to a collaborative development process to ensure our Community Schools effectively address local needs and priorities.

The Four Pillars of Community Schoolstitle
Pillar One: Integrated Student Supports
Integrated student supports, which can support student success by meeting their academic, physical, social-emotional, and mental health needs. Statute defines this as including the “coordination of trauma-informed health, mental health, and social services.” Effectively supporting students also requires that students be well known so that they can be well served.
Pillar Two: Expanded Learning Time & Opportunities
Extended learning time and opportunities that include academic support, enrichment, and real-world learning opportunities (e.g., internships, project-based learning). Statute refers to these opportunities as both “extended learning” and “expanded learning” and defines them as including “before and after school care and summer programs.” Expanded learning opportunities can also include tutoring and other learning supports during school hours.
Pillar Three: Active Family and Community Engagement
Family and community engagement, which involves actively tapping the expertise and knowledge of family and community members to serve as true partners in supporting and educating students. Statute defines this as including “home visits, home-school collaboration, [and] culturally responsive community partnerships.” Learning opportunities for family members as well as structures and opportunities for shared leadership are other important elements of authentic family engagement.
Pillar Four: Collaborative Leadership & Practices
Collaborative leadership and practices for educators and administrators that establish a culture of professional learning, collective trust, and shared responsibility for outcomes in a manner that includes students, families, and community members. Statute defines this as including “professional development to transform school culture and climate that centers on pupil learning and supports mental and behavioral health, trauma-informed care, Social Emotional Learning [and] restorative justice.”
