Last year, Communities In Schools of Thomasville reached 1,433 students with our supports and essential resources in Thomasville city alone. We surround students with a community of support so they stay – and succeed – in school.

Our Impact

BUT THERE ARE MORE KIDS WHO STILL NEED SUPPORT

Kids can’t get an education – or graduate and reap the benefits that come from a high school degree – if they’re not in school.

Inequitable learning conditions and disparities in chronic absenteeism, drop-out rates, and graduation rates far predate the pandemic.

In Thomasville

1 in 3 children 

live in poverty.

Our model of integrated student supports is not about doing the work for students. It’s about making sure all students have access to the community resources and tools they need to unlock their potential and thrive.

Leveling the Playing Field

we do this by:
