What does Communities in Schools do?
Working directly in 100+ schools across 12 school districts, Communities In Schools of San Antonio builds relationships that empower students to stay in school and succeed in life. Our school-based staff partner with teachers to identify challenges students face in class or at home and coordinate with community partners to bring outside resources inside schools. From immediate needs like food or clothing to more complex ones like counseling or emotional support, we do whatever it takes to help students succeed.

Which Students May Need CIS Services?
While no student is exactly the same, students who may need support from CIS-SA are students with multiple absences, those with behavioral problems or conflict with other students, those that show signs of needing additional support, students in need of social services as well as students who show signs of trauma.
Please contact me by phone or email to refer a student to receive CIS-SA services.
About Me:
Hello! My name is Vanessa Montez, the CIS-SA Site Coordinator at Pease Middle School. I want to collaborate with you to identify the challenges our students encounter both in the classroom and at home. My goal is to engage with community partners to provide essential resources that benefit not only our students but their families. If you need immediate assistance such as clothing, food, or more specialized support like counseling or emotional support, please do not hesitate to contact me. It is my priority to ensure that our students thrive both at school and at home.
