Communities In Schools of Cameron County

Communities In Schools of Cameron County Communities In Schools (CIS) believes that caring, one-on-one relationships between adults and young people make the crucial difference.

CIS is a nonprofit organization made up of 27 local Texas affiliates that support students at-risk of dropping out by surrounding them with a community of support to ensure they stay in school and achieve in life. Programs don't change kids - relationships do. CIS creates comprehensive, locally controlled and owned support systems around schools. CIS locates and coordinates community resources, de

dicated volunteers, and agencies to serve in partnership with the public schools, both during the day and after school, thereby making the work of our educators much more effective. Coordination of effort and accountability for results are essential aspects of the service CIS provides - because, too often, well-meaning programs are not focused on overall school objectives. CIS ensures that the work of these outside agencies and volunteers is interconnected and integrated to provide the support schools need the most.
