Aurora Community School

More About Aurora Community School

The team working to create Aurora Community School, although diverse in many ways, all have one very strong passion in common - providing all students, regardless of background, race, culture, socioeconomic status, learning needs, etc. an equitable learning experience. We believe that, in order to do this, a school must exist that offers more than the traditional space for teachers to teach and students to learn content. We seek to: (1) raise the level of social and emotional competence in all children as part of their regular education - not just children who have a potential opportunity gap (2) improve academic performance by creating caring, confident learners who are self aware and comprehend their impact on others; and (3) to support the development of a compassionate, ethical, socially responsible, collaborative learning community.
