Working together to build long-term school-community collaborations and vitality, the site unifies Maine\u2019s unique organizational assets to support a wide variety of instructional methods and programs that connect what is being taught in schools to surrounding communities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough CL4ME, Maine educators, community leaders and families are invited to join together to build strong, mutually beneficial connections between schools and communities,\u201d says Korah Soll, founding director of the Rural Aspirations Project. \u201cThese connections demonstrate our collective investment in supporting youth as future leaders, problem solvers and innovators able to navigate transitions, contribute to, and thrive in a changing local and global world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Biddle has coordinated the College of Education and Human Development\u2019s contributions to the site. Several faculty members have provided content, including webinars hosted by members of the special education faculty, and the site\u2019s Parent\/Guardian Resources page, which was compiled by UMaine\u2019s Parenting Relationships Research Lab, founded by assistant professor of family studies Daniel Puhlman.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHealthy communities and healthy schools are intertwined in so many ways,\u201d says Biddle. \u201cAlthough this website launched during the COVID-19 crisis, the hope is that it will continue to be a resource for families and teachers in Maine for many years to come.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the college, other partners in the site include the Maine Department of Education, the Island Institute, Island Readers &amp; Writers, the Maine Environmental Education Association and the Schoodic Institute at Acadia National Park.<\/p>\n<p>Members from each organization will be at the Zoom launch for CL4ME, which will include a virtual tour of the site and a Q&amp;A session.
