What sets Communities In Schools apart from other organizations is its model of providing a comprehensive range of community-based interventions that can help each student reach his or her potential. A school-based coordinator is positioned inside partner schools. In this pivotal role, the coordinator works with school staff to identify students at risk of not graduating. He or she also addresses school and student needs and establishes relationships with local business partners, social service agencies and parent and volunteer organizations to provide necessary resources.
