Since graduating its first 8th Grade class in 2014, Community Roots has seen students progress to an array of dynamic high schools, colleges, universities and other post-secondary options. Today, our alumni partake in an expanding network of advocates, allies, innovators, leaders and community builders. Whether dropping into visit their former Kindergarten class, support a school activity, seek employment as an Intern, CRCS Summer Camp Counselor, After-School Teacher or Paraprofessional, or to simply say hello, CRCS Alumni cultivate their connectedness to the school community well beyond eighth grade graduation. We love this! Our alumni are deeply encouraged to stay connected to CRCS and our ever-expanding community of alumni, families, educators and trustees.
