Synopsis

Turn your school into a national center for community life and learning. This practical guide shows how rural communities can organize and sustain meaningful center-based work for years to come.

In The Community Center, L. J. Hanifan outlines a clear vision: local leadership, strong school involvement, and broad collaboration turn everyday classrooms into hubs of social life, culture, and civic engagement. The book explains why community-centered activity matters now and how it can be organized to fit local conditions. It’s designed for superintendents, supervisors, teachers, and other leaders who want a practical plan with real-world applications.



Three sections frame the value and method: foundational principles; the scope of community center activities; and ready-to-use programs for meetings and country life. The author emphasizes that improvements in rural life begin with the people themselves and that schools can serve as central, unifying spaces for communities.




  • Understand the role of the school as a coordinating hub for community life

  • Learn how to plan, lead, and adapt center activities with teachers and other leaders

  • Explore chapters on entertainment, country life programs, and practical meeting ideas

  • Discover how to use community gatherings to support teaching, attendance, and public speaking



Ideal for readers seeking a clear, actionable framework to strengthen rural education and local leadership through organized community activities.
