Abstract: Schools used to be the center of a community, serving as a hub for empowering students, staff, and community members. As our public school and political landscapes are constantly changing, this qualitative, phenomenological study researches school stakeholders in the midst of turnaround efforts, exploring the role of inclusive engagement on sustainable educational and community outcomes in low-performing Title I schools and neighborhoods. Its aim was to examine gaps in external and internal support systems, understanding if stakeholders play any role in advancing sustainable and community outcomes and whether intentional focus helps establish structures that help ensure enrolled students receive equitable access to education and resources. The researcher leveraged Bronfenbrenner's ecological systems theory and Kania and Kramer's collective impact model to build a unique conceptual framework for this study. Participants of individual and focus group interviews were identified through convenience sampling and leveraged a structured protocol. Data analysis involved video and in-person interviews, which were coded and analyzed for key emergent, common themes. The findings of this study revealed that there is a nuanced understanding of what collective change looks like and who is ultimately responsible for these efforts. However, this study offers tangible next steps as to how comprehensive support through campus-, district-, and community-level initiatives and programming is made possible. Furthermore, this study reveals that a culture around collective impact is necessary, suggesting concerted efforts around collaborative spaces and a profound mindset shift is the first step in obtaining lasting change for schools and communities.
