Communities In Schools of the Tecumseh Area
Mission Statement:

To surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life.

Our work is guided by the Five Basic Principles of CIS.

We believe that every child needs and deserves:

• A personal one-on-one relationship with a caring adult

• A safe place to learn and grow

• A marketable skill to use upon graduation

• A healthy start and a healthy future

• A chance to give back to peers and community
