Impact

Communities In Schools of Greater Tarrant County is dedicated to making a real tangible impact on the lives of students in our community.

Dedicated to Impacting Lives

CISGTC’s program outcomes are documented and measured at two levels: School data, and Texas Education Agency evaluation. CISGTC tracks student grades, attendance, behavior, grade promotion, high school graduation, and post-secondary enrollment rates through school data, therefore no claim is made of achievements in these areas unless there is school-based documentation supporting it. As a CIS supporter and partner, the Texas Education Agency evaluates and certifies the data reported to them.

What Teachers Say

“Communities In Schools of Greater Tarrant County is such an invaluable resource. As a school, we recognize that our students have needs that go beyond instruction. Sometimes we don’t have the capacity to reach the needs that the students have, but Communities In Schools can bridge that gap.”

Ryan Catala, Fort Worth ISD Principal
