The Neighborhood's Key Role in Nontraditional Learning
Education
March 3 - 7, 2025 | On the Table
Description
The growing nontraditional education movement often leans heavily on local community members to provide the context for many project-based, service-oriented, experiential learning opportunities. Hear how Divis Educational Services in Macon has engaged over 70 local entities in its less than three-year existence, creating meaningful experiences for clients (mostly homeschooling tweens and teens)--and be inspired to take part in such a process, whether you are a nontraditional education vendor, a family seeking services, or a community member eager to support high-quality, innovative education.
What is On the Table
On the Table is a one of a kind opportunity to bring people of diverse backgrounds together to have meaningful conversations about topics that are important to the community. This community-wide initiative seeks to explore the ways in which we have the power to collaborate to make our community stronger, safer, and more dynamic.
Following On the Table, the Community Foundation of Central Georgia will survey participants to find out what issues matter most to them and what kinds of ideas for solutions emerged from the day’s conversations. We’ll also help to share some stories of participants to help inspire others to make a difference.
