Community Learning Centers
Akron Public Schools is currently undergoing reconstruction of its buildings. Through a partnership with the City of Akron and OSFC, schools in the Akron Public Schools district will be rebuilt or remodeled to become community learning centers by 2015. These are schools by day and community learning centers by night and weekends.
Seventeen CLCs are complete and another 7 are in the design or construction stage. The City of Akron is responsible for scheduling the use of these buildings after school hours.

“[Madness] is the jail we could all end up in. And we know it. And watch our step. For a lifetime. We behave. A fantastic and entire system of social control, by the threat of example as effective over the general population as detention centers in dictatorships, the image of the madhouse floats through every mind for the course of its lifetime.”
—Kate Millett (b. 1934)
“What I wanted was to create thoughtful citizens—people who believed they could live interesting lives and be productive and socially useful. So I tried to create a community of children and adults where the adults shared and respected the children’s lives.”
—Deborah Meier (b. 1931)
“The first man to discover Chinook salmon in the Columbia, caught 264 in a day and carried them across the river by walking on the backs of other fish. His greatest feat, however, was learning the Chinook jargon in 15 minutes from listening to salmon talk.”
—State of Oregon, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
