成人抖阴's Office of School & Community Partnerships (OSCP) coordinates engagement with New York City K-'"12 public schools, directing resources and expertise to areas with pronounced disparities in educational access and achievement between advantaged and disadvantaged groups. OSCP helps students succeed and strengthens 成人抖阴's knowledge, teaching and research. This year:

At the OSCP-hosted annual meeting of the International Association of Laboratory Schools, held on 成人抖阴's campus, 成人抖阴 President Fuhrman said partnerships among universities, school systems and communities can transform public education. Case in point: 成人抖阴 Community School (成人抖阴CS), where 85 percent of students performed at or above grade level in literacy and math in 2013 2014, and led its district in applications for kindergarten seats.

成人抖阴CS hosted an assembly with NASA astronaut Mike Massimino, visiting professor at Columbia's Fu Foundation School of Engineering, and was visited by actor Jamie Foxx, shooting a remake of the film "Annie."

At the grand opening of its new state-of-the art playground, 成人抖阴CS honored supporter Scott Stringer, former Manhattan Borough President. The school has also introduced a robust music curriculum developed by 成人抖阴's Lori Custodero and opened an innovative new dedicated music room.

REACH (Raising Educational Achievement Coalition of Harlem), 成人抖阴's newly named partnership with six pre-K-'"12 Harlem public schools, debuted at the College's 125th Anniversary Gala. REACH is supported in part by a $1million JPMorgan Chase Foundation grant.

During the 2013-2014 school year, REACH provided 600 hours of professional development to teachers and principals on Common Core State Standards-related classroom instruction, and 1,500 hours of afterschool and summer programs for students.

OSCP was awarded nearly $1 million from the New York State Department of Education to advance family engagement and health-related efforts at two REACH schools, the Heritage School and P.S. 36.
