Since 1995, Communities In Schools of Renton-Tukwila has been striving for equity in educational opportunities providing students the unique supports they need to succeed. Guided by our core values of equity, opportunity and collaboration, we deliver a unique model of Integrated Student Support. Our social service professional team work directly inside K-12 schools to address the identified needs of each school and its individual students who are facing non-academic barriers to success. We provide supports in three different tiers: Tier 1: School-wide services; Tier 2: Targeted programs; Tier 3: Individualized support. By differentiating our supports, we are able to serve most students within a school while also focusing attention on targeted students that have significant needs.
We focus on those students who have historically been the furthest from educational justice in the highest need elementary and secondary schools within the Renton and Tukwila School Districts. Students are referred for CIS services for a variety of reasons including food insecurity, homelessness, living in unsafe environments; experiencing some other form of trauma; lack of a caring adult or disengaged from school.
As an organization rooted in equity, we look ahead to the time when success will no longer be predictable based on one’s race or socioeconomic status.
