Communities in Schools
CIS serves as a broker of services
to local public schools.
We assist with identifying the needs of individual schools and locate
existing community resources to help address those needs.
Funds raised by the board are used to sponsor some of these services:
Early Literacy, Counseling, Parent Outreach & Education, Pre-school
Readiness, Health and Wellness, and Family Resource Centers.

Prom Help-
Cinderella Affair
The Cinderella
Affair is an all-volunteer project supported by Tempe Community Council.
Community volunteers and service groups spend countless hours collecting and
sorting dresses prior to prom season.
High school
junior and senior girls are invited to attend a boutique in the spring, where
they shop for a dress and accessories free of charge. Volunteers act as
personal shoppers, working to make the whole experience unforgettable.

churches, small businesses, civic organizations and corporations. Public child care
subsidies offset a large portion of the cost and student parents are responsible for a
small portion of the cost of child care. |
