What School Officials Say
Communities In Schools helps kids whose family circumstances hinder their opportunity for success. Sometimes families aren't able to provide for all the things kids need. We recruit and train community volunteers to work as mentors and tutors who provide consistent adult guidance, life skills modeling, and set the expectation for success.
