Speaker: Dwight Moseley, Site Coordinator Topic: Communities in Schools Greater Central Texas The founding principle of Communities In Schools is to establish one-on-one relationships with individual students in order to support them beyond obstacles to success in school. Communities In Schools Program Managers connect personally with students to create a service plan based on each child’s needs and then make that plan happen. They may provide individual counseling or support groups, basic life skills, tutoring, mentoring, or enrichment opportunities. The goal of all these services is to engage students in learning and succeeding in school. Across greater Central Texas they partner with over 50 schools, 5 school districts: Killeen, Copperas Cove, Temple, Salado and Jarrell. The Mission is to surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life. The Focus: believes that relationships, not programs, change the trajectory of at-risk students lives. For more information or to donate: www.cistx.org or 254-554-2132
