The Learning Community is a vibrant public elementary school serving children and families from Central Falls, Providence and Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The Learning Community is a high poverty, high performing urban school, and we have the strongest family engagement of any school in the state. We are a K-6 school and will grow to serve over 400 children.
This work fulfills our bold mission: At The Learning Community, we believe that literacy empowers each 
individual to have a voice, assume community responsibility and take social action. We expect leadership at every level. We grow teacher leaders, student leaders and community leaders.
