Discussion
The present study provides empirical results regarding the outcomes of school-community partnership in sustainability education programs. Specifically, it compares schools’ sustainability agendas with those of students’ parents, as an indication for reciprocal processes within the partnership.

Schools and parents in our sample belong to two different populations with regard to their sustainability agendas. Furthermore, we find that while schools mainly teach environmental topics, parents’ sustainability agenda is more aligned
