How We Work

Our Skilled Network Staff Helps Many Virginia Schools Every Day

CIS places trained site coordinators directly inside public schools, where they target the students most at risk of low achievement or dropping out. Site coordinators provide students with intensive one-on-one support, while also working to improve the resources available to the entire student community.

CIS services include:

• Mentoring
• Tutoring
• Health care
• Career development
• Summer and after-school programs
• Service learning

CIS also operates a growing national network of Performance Learning Centers for students who are not succeeding in traditional schools.
