CCLCs founders sought to establish a beautiful and welcoming campus to support the educational interests and needs for learners of all ages and to help improve the quality of teaching and learning throughout the region. The hope is to balance the social, education and life scales in rural communities to those of all communities in America.
Our mission is to create responsive educational opportunities in easternmost Maine that strengthen personal, community and global well-being.
TREE program Transforming Rural Experience in Education We have long known that what happens outside of school greatly influences what happens in school, and yet, for decades the educational focus has remained on the traditional 3 Rs and the focus on testing has increased. With TREE, teachers, students, families, and communities are coming together in ways that provide opportunities and hope for addressing the many stressors which affect our schools. Teachers are moving from managing behavior to understanding students and how the brain works. By looking through this different lens which puts relationships at the center, TREE is supporting all engaged, ensuring ALL voices are heard. With a commitment to putting human connection at the center and understanding the importance of creating space for difficult conversations and intentional reflection, TREE can foster enduring shifts in practice and policy. We believe TREE will leave a legacy of hope for public schools, not just here in Washington County, but in all of rural America.
