The Importance of Community Engagement and Support

  • According to the National Education Association, "when schools, parents, families, and communities work together to support learning, students tend to earn high grades, attend school more regularly, stay in school longer, and enroll in higher level programs." (NEA May, 2016).  Community support, partnership, and engagement with and in schools in important and necessary for our children's success.  The Upper Darby School District welcomes community members and neighbors from the Upper Darby Township, Clifton Heights Borough, and Millbourne Borough to visit our Community Bulletin Board regularly for news and updates regarding events, activities, resources, and supports happening and available in and around the School District community.  The Upper Darby School District Community Bulletin Board - your source for community-wide activities and resources that benefit our students and families!
