Common Ground uses three sites as laboratories for learning: the urban farm that is the school’s campus, the natural environment of the adjacent West Rock Ridge State Park, and the urban setting of New Haven, Connecticut. Close study of these places develops understanding of local and global issues. Through this study and core academic work, students experience a rigorous high school curriculum that prepares them for competitive colleges, meaningful careers, and purposeful lives.

Today, the Citywide School Construction program stands as a national model for its massive scope, innovative financing and high degree of community involvement. - The School Construction program was launched in 1995 as a mechanism by which the City could repair its aging school ...... infrastructure while marginalizing the expense to taxpayers . To date, as a result of this innovative program and with no federal assistance, the City has commitments of $406.5 million toward the renovation or replacement of schools. An additional $295 million is planned to renovate an additional 21 schools over the next 10 years. The program includes both new and "gut-renovation" school projects. The General Accounting Office recently reported that one­ third of the nation's schools need extensive repair or replacement. In New Haven, a survey found that of the City's 42 city owned school buildings, 41 percent are at - least 50 years old . New Haven is moving aggressively to solve its problems while many municipalities are just com­ ing to grips with the extent of deterioration in neighborhood - schools built decades ago.
