Mission
COMMUNITY ROOTS CHARTER SCHOOL IS A RIGOROUS LEARNING COMMUNITY WHERE EDUCATION IS EMBEDDED IN MEANINGFUL REAL-WORLD CONTEXTS AND CHILDREN ARE DELIBERATELY TAUGHT TO SEE THE CONNECTIONS BETWEEN SCHOOL AND THE WORLD. COMMUNITY ROOTS STUDENTS WILL MEET OR EXCEED THE NEW YORK STATE STANDARDS AND BE PREPARED TO EXCEL IN THE 21ST CENTURY BY BECOMING INDEPENDENT THINKERS AND WORKING PRODUCTIVELY WITHIN A DIVERSE GROUP OF LEARNERS. AT COMMUNITY ROOTS, STUDENTS LEARN TO COMBINE CURIOSITY WITH APPROPRIATE APPLICATION, WHICH LEADS TO DEEP UNDERSTANDING AND THE CONFIDENCE TO BECOME WHO THEY WANT TO BE.
