Center on Education and Lifelong Learning

With decades of combined service, our staff wholeheartedly support the center's mission.


Our staff has dedicated years of service in support of the center's mission to work with schools and communities to welcome, include, educate and support all learners.
to work with schools and communities

It is our belief that improved schools result in improved communities and improved communities result in improved schools. We understand the interdependent relationship. Therefore, we see a responsibility to collaborate and connect with community partners if we are to see our mission realized.

to welcome, include, educate and support

This is the core of our mission; it defines the outcomes that we individually and collectively value.

all learners

From the time that the Center was created in 1999, the word "all" has represented our strong philosophy of inclusiveness. As we work with schools and communities, the outcomes we value are extended to learners across the lifespan; we are committed to lifelong learning for ourselves and for those with whom we work.
