A new Tuscaloosa City Schools community resource center could serve as a model for other Alabama schools.
Updated:The New Heights Community Resources Center is located in the old Stillman Heights Elementary building at 3834 21st St in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. Savannah Tryens-Fernandes/AL.comTuscaloosa City Schools has opened a new community resource center – the first of its kind in the state to connect students and families to local nonprofits and wrap-around services.
“We recognize that in order to meet the needs of students academically, we know we have to meet all of their needs and support the whole child. We’re limited in some of the supports we can provide, but that changes today,” said Tuscaloosa City Schools Superintendent Mike Daria. “This partnership will benefit students because we will be able to work much more closely with the city schools and with other partners to serve the city school students. You know, there may have been situations where we could have helped city schools students but we weren’t aware of the needs.
The center also houses “The Lift,” a store where students can pick up free clothes, food, shoes and hygiene products to take home, if a need is identified by their school’s social worker.
