The Coalition for Community School Excellence (CCSE) –

consisting of 60+ lead community school partner organizations, neighborhood groups, parents, advocacy organizations, education policy organizations and more – began in 2015 as a vehicle for committed stakeholders to have an elevated voice on ensuring the success of the community schools initiative.
This unique partnership of diverse organizations recognizes the enormous importance of the Community Schools Initiative and is committed to throwing the collective weight of our organizations behind its success.

Together, the Coalition member organizations are working closely with more than half of the schools in the Mayor’s Community Schools Initiative in all five boroughs, as well as dozens of other community schools.
