Community Connected Learning

Community connections create relevance for students that supports their development as young citizens. Our local community offers an abundance of opportunities to engage in fieldwork, interview experts, and grow through service projects.

From preschool through sixth grade, Carlson regularly connect students’ learning to our community in a variety of ways in all subject areas. This helps students become  lifelong learners, because they know that they can learn anywhere, anytime. Lifelong learners are often those who work to make their communities better places.
