CIS Launches National Roll Call
Communities In Schools is calling roll on the millions of students who are absent from school – not by choice, but because of real-life challenges. Communities In Schools addresses chronic absenteeism through trained, caring adults- site coordinators- who remove barriers and help students show up to school, ready to learn.
Commitment to Our Service Delivery
Our mission calls on us to embrace the rich backgrounds, experiences, talents, cultures and contributions that our students, families and staff bring to the work of transforming schools and communities. Our differences are a vital strength and an integral part of who we are as an organization.
Our relational approach drives us to ensure a sense of safety and belonging for all. We cultivate a flourishing professional community where staff of every background and experience can thrive; where we treat each other with caring, dignity, and respect for differences, and; where all members are valued, heard, and respected.
We strive to operate with a sense of urgency and accountability grounded in compassionate leadership to build a culture that inspires constant learning and continuous improvement.
