Staying Connected
George Washington Elementary School partnered with the office of Ismail Smith-Wade-El to host a Student Civic Engagement Town Hall for fourth and fifth grade students. Through this partnership, Representative Smith-Wade-El joined Mayor Jaime Arroyo for Lancaster City and School Board Member Katrina Holmes inside the Washington Elementary gymnasium for an authentic, student-led conversation about issues shaping their community.
The Student Civic Engagement Town Hall exemplifies Rigorous Community Connected Classroom Instruction, a key practice within our Community School Framework. Teaching and learning at Washington ES infused high-level academic content with authentic, real-world application. Students were analyzing issues, communicating ideas, collaborating with peers, and connecting their identities and lived experiences to public leadership.
Civic engagement begins early. When schools and community leaders partner together and center student voice, students see themselves not just as learners, but as active contributors to the future of Lancaster.
