The community school transforms that traditional role of neighborhood school into
that of a total community center.
There are major distinctions between the neighborhood school. Both may offer
similar programs, services, and activities, yet the community school concepts is
premised on the ultimate goal of community involvement and participation and is
not necessarily based in the individuals neighborhood. The neighborhood school is
usually oriented to skill attainment, personal enjoyment, and individual self-
enrichment for a particular age group at a school in the individuals immediate
surroundings.
