FRYSC

Integrating FRYSCs into Schools 

FRYSCS were created to address the non-academic needs of all children and their families as a means to enhance student academic success. Each FRYSC offers a unique blend of programs and services to serve the particular needs of their student and family populations. FRYSCs are strengthened by in-school and community partnerships that provide vital programs, services and referrals to students and their families. 

FRYSC coordinators are part of the school team and establishing close partnerships within the school and connecting the FRYSC mission with the needs and goals of the school is critical to a successful center. 

Centers are Open Throughout the Year 

Summer activities might include home visits, transition programs, back to school events and collaborative summer programming to help prevent "summer slide." Coordinators often assist families in the summer with enrollment requirements, referrals for school health-related needs, basic needs and more.
