WHO WE ARE
Communities In Schools of Central Texas believes that each student deserves every opportunity to succeed in school. We are a private nonprofit agency located on your child’s campus to help students learn, stay in school, and prepare for a successful life. Communities In Schools works in cooperation with the school, which often refers students to us. We serve students who would benefit from extra attention. Our mission is to empower students to achieve, both in school and in the future.
