Last year we served over 10,000 young people of which 1,031 received case-managed services. We are proud to say that of those case-managed students:

  • 96% were promoted to the next grade level (excluding seniors)

  • 77% maintained adequate attendance

  • 79% improved academics in at least one core subject area

  • 88% improved behavior

  • 93% of seniors graduate (73% went to college, 11% joined the military)

Thanks to the generosity of volunteers and donors, CIS has helped thousands of children excel in schools throughout the Charleston region. Read some of our SUCCESS STORIES.
