Communities In Schools of Houston (CIS) is a non-profit organization that provides supportive services to students at Tijerina Elementary. Our mission is to surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life.

CIS believes that every child needs and deserves:

2.      A safe place to learn and grow
3.      A healthy start and a healthy future
4.      A marketable skill to use upon graduation
5.      A chance to give back to peers and the community

We offer our students and their families services that meet real needs and provide real opportunities. Our services include:
