CIS South Central Texas

I am the Communities In Schools (CIS) Site Coordinator for Sippel Elementary for 2023-2024. Referrals to CIS can be initiated by students and their friends, as well as parents, the counselor, administration or teachers/staff. If you have any questions or need to make a referral, please contact the school at (210) 619-2448 or email me at ltijerina@scuc.txed.net.

We believe that EVERY CHILD needs and deserves:

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

• A safe place to learn and grow.

• A healthy start and a healthy future.

• A marketable skill to use upon graduation.

• A chance to give back to peers and the community.

We look for ways to provide:

• Basic needs

• Academic assistance

• Health Initiatives

• Social Emotional Health
