Communities in Schools
Flagship Charter Academy partners with Communities In Schools (CIS), a non-profit organization that works in collaboration with schools across the country to empower students to stay in school and succeed in life.
Simply put, the goal is to surround students with a caring community of support. This is created by helping families access critical resources like food, housing, healthcare, counseling, and other needed support so they can take charge to provide a better future for themselves and their family.
Making a Difference in Students' Lives
CIS will place an on-site CIS Site Coordinator at our school to work with our staff, school leaders, families, and students to provide support services.
CIS specializes in developing school support plans, working with school leaders to create goals and objectives that will be implemented at the school. Additionally, they partner with outside agencies and school staff to enhance school programs by offering added support for our families.
Our partnership with CIS has many benefits:
- Supportive guidance and counseling
- Educational Support
- Tutoring
- Mentoring
- Enrichment Activities
