A gift that any city or town can give its children is the opportunity to know and practice community. Children must know community in their lives if they are to become tomorrow's community builders. Schools are excellent vehicles to creating community.

At Home in Our Schools is a provocative guidebook to schoolwide activities that build community. The suggestions and strategies offered in this book reinforce values that help children thrive and are essential ingredients for developing a caring community for the 21st century.
