The district has a strong leadership team in place-based learning and service-learning, the Place-Based Service-Learning Partnership (PBSLP). PBSLP includes a site advocate position at each school and an active calendar of professional development activities which are documented on the PBSLP page along with key contacts. The district has a moderate but increasing committment to PBL and S-L through the curriculum refinement initiative which is being managed by Eastern Sierra Institute for Collaborative Education (ESICE) and the PBSLP.

Two schools have strong place-based service-learning language in their school sites plans, Tahoe Lake ES and Sierra Mountain MS, and several others make brief mention of PBSL.
