Unlock the Potential of
South Carolina Students
Because every child deserves a promising future.
Light the way for students across South Carolina.
Light a luminary in celebration of American Education Week and honor a CIS student for just $10. Our goal is to honor all 24,500 students we serve at 39 schools, and raise funds to expand into even more Title I public schools across the state.
Luminaries will be lit at community events across the state on Sunday, November 13th from 6-8pm.
Social & Emotional Wellbeing
We are the leading provider of social emotional supports in South Carolina. Our team of 44 site coordinators are reaching 24,500 students across 39 school sites in seven South Carolina counties.
CIS Model
Integrated Student Supports
CIS is the leading provider of Integrated Student Supports in the nation.
We create access to educational supports and critical resources, like food, housing, healthcare, and counseling.
Communities In Schools is the largest provider of Integrated Student Supports in the country.
The CIS model of Integrated Student Supports utilizes school-based site coordinators who assess each student’s unique needs and connect them to existing community resources so they can overcome those barriers and focus on learning.
As the nation’s largest provider of Integrated Student Supports, Communities In Schools is uniquely positioned to bring this model to thousands of students who live in poverty and who face a greater risk of dropping out.
