What is a Community School?
A Community School takes one of the largest and most under-utilized public facilities, the public school, and increases the investment by keeping it open evenings, weekends and during the summer for community activities.
Who is LTCES?
Lake Trail Community Education Society(LTCES) is a growing and innovative charitable organization that runs the community school program at Lake Trail Community School. LTCES works in partnership with the school and community partners to expand the school into a hub of community life. This is especially significant in West Courtenay where there is high community need, yet very little infrastructure for community use.
Our Purpose
LTCES serves community members of all ages through our After School and Youth, Healthy Communities, and Healthy Foods programs, as well as through our thriving community garden. We collaborate with educators, youth, community members, facilitators, and partner agencies in planning, implementing, and assessing programs and opportunities.
