| | CES Comprehensive School Reform |
 | | Schools that seek to transform their work according to CES' philosophy receive support from a CES center in four focus areas: school design, classroom practice, leadership, and community connections. |
 | | CES is a member of the Catalog of School Reform Models, which only admits models that provide schools with a coherent framework for change that addresses all aspects of school operations, including governance, structure, culture, curriculum, instruction, assessment, and professional development. |
 | | While students may do much of their learning outside of the school walls, guided by mentors from the community, so too, should family and community members be involved in the intellectual life of the school. |
