Language Arts Center, a Chicago Public School, is located in the
southeast section of the Ravenswood community. We focus on language
arts emphasizing a child-centered curriculum which incorporates
reading, writing, languages (French and Spanish), speech, and technology
supported by a strong neighborhood and family-based program.
Students in the primary and intermediate program
follow the Chicago
Public School's state mandated learning goals and academic standards.
They explore an enriching curriculum developed by qualified teachers and
personnel. To learn more about the special programs and services
offered at Courtenay Language Arts Center, be sure to visit the About
Courtenay page.

| We have partnered with different community
members to broaden the resources available to Courtenay students.
Previously, we have partnered with corporations and businesses such as the American
Heart Association, Ravenswood Hospital, Bank of America, the University
of Illinois at Chicago and Chicago Cares. We have also
established outreach programs with community groups such as The Girl Scouts
of America. |

| Courtenay's partnership with the Kiwanis
of Ravenswood has continued for at least 25 years. Their support has
included sponsorship of teacher workshops, computers, software, supplies, etc.
Mr. Barney Kearney, President, has been instrumental in providing the
leadership for this dedicated organization.
We provide students with a variety of learning
experiences. In the past, we have hosted speakers such as Dr. Jeffrey
Wigand, whose personal story was featured in the film, The Insider.
Our students have been involved in notable world-wide programs such as the JASON
Project. |
