A Commitment to our Communities
In CCSD15 we strongly value school, family, and community partnerships. These relationships can strengthen and transform the learning process for students. In this edition of Parent University, we highlight community partners, programs, and services available for students and families.
New Warrior Way Learning Center
The Warrior Way Learning Center was previously called Community School. During the Warrior Way Learning Center, students will participate in a variety of activities! Some are academic based such as homework and school support while others are fun enrichments. Some of the enrichment activities are Soccer, STEM, Art, Cooking and many more! The activities are based on student interest and we are encouraging students to step out of their comfort and learn about new ideas or concepts! Programming runs primarily at Winston Campus Junior High School.
BPAC
The Bilingual Parent Advisory Committee (B-PAC) consists of parents/guardians of students enrolled in the bilingual program, bilingual teachers, counselors and community leaders. The committee participates in the planning, operation and evaluation of the Spanish bilingual program. In addition, important topics relating to education, the district and the community are shared.Read more about this organization and events.
SPARK
SPARK meetings are designed to give parents information to help them in their current and future steps of the journey of parenting children with unique needs. As parents, we guide and make decisions for our children and their development. The SPARK committee and District 15 are grateful to have you and desire to serve you such that your journey is successful! Read more about this organization and events.

District 15 is "green" in its approach to distributing community flyers. Rather than sending flyers home with each student via backpack mail, flyers are posted on the D15 E-Flyers page for parents to view or print 24/7. A limited number of flyers may also be displayed in the school's flyer rack for students or parents to pick up (if an organization chooses to provide them). It is estimated that this saves our schools nearly 2,000 hours per year spent sorting and handling the materials, not to mention the number of trees and other resources saved in producing them.
