And just like that, another school year is in the books. ✨

We're celebrating a year of showing up, growing, building connections, and helping students discover what's possible.

As one school year ends, we're already preparing for the next. Support our School Readiness Fund and help ensure students start the fall ready to learn, belong, and succeed.

2026 Graduation week is here ✨🎓

At CIS, we believe inside every student is a graduate. Before the cap tosses, the photos, and the diplomas… there are tiny wins, hard days, caring adults, and moments when someone says, I see you. Keep going.

This week, we celebrate every graduate — and every person who helped them get there, especially our Site Coordinators. The true magic.
