One Child at a Time
Kristine wanted to teach her daughter, Alice, the importance of giving back to their community. Seeking out an opportunity to serve a local school, Kristine contacted Communities In Schools and offered to help stuff backpacks for a school supply drive. Together, the mother and daughter team sorted over 30 boxes of donated supplies and delivered 700 school supply backpacks to area schools. “I like volunteering because I like to help other kids,” says Alice. “It makes me realize that no one is too young to make a difference.”

Welcome to CIS of Spokane County

Communities In Schools of Spokane County is leading the charge to keep kids in school. By providing coordinators at targeted schools we are getting the right kids the right services at the right time. The site coordinator’s job is to collaborate with community agencies to bring services to kids. Communities In Schools provides the vital link between the school and the community. During the 2009-2010 school year we had coordinators at 4 schools, and we NOW have site coordinators placed in 6 schools: Glover, Chase, Cheney and Shaw Middle Schools, Sheridan Elementary and Lewis and Clark High School.

 

Communities In Schools is leading a county wide effort to pilot a school-based health center in the fall of 2011.  To learn more about this initiative please visit www.schoolhealthcaresc.org.
