Be Part of Rothenberg's New Life

Rothenberg School is now starting the CPS community engagement process during which we will redesign the former Rothenberg School near Main Street and Liberty into a neighborhood school with the community learning center concept. Below is a definition of a CLC (community learning center).

Next Meeting: THURSDAY, MARCH 13th

Location: PEASLEE NEIGHBORHOOD CENTER, 215 East 14th Street

EVERYONE WELCOME!

The Community Learning Center design, which embraces the assembly and coordination of a variety of partners to offer academic programs, enrichment activities and support to students, families and community members - before and after school, and during the evenings and on weekends:
  • After-School Programs with an integrated curriculum
  • On-site wellness programs (medical, dental, etc.)
  • Community residents attend job-readiness classes at the school
  • A sense of “community,” where families spend more time together
  • Improved safety and security in the surrounding community
  • Coordination of community resources to meet needs
