What COMMUNITIES IN SCHOOLS-BAYTOWN INC does

Communities In Schools-Baytown Inc (CIS Baytown) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit charitable organization and an independent local affiliate of the national Communities In Schools network. It is headquartered at 1906 Decker Drive in Baytown, Texas, with 13 employees and operates exclusively within the Goose Creek Consolidated Independent School District (GCCISD). The organization's stated mission is dropout prevention and student success, and it reaches over 9,000 students per year through in-school programs. For the 2023-2024 school year it reported outcome metrics including 99.75% of case-managed students promoted, 97.67% graduated, 100% remained in school, 94% improved academically, 94.03% improved behavior, and 78.19% increased attendance.

CIS Baytown's core technology is the Communities In Schools integrated student supports model, which is delivered by trained site coordinators placed inside partner schools. The model is tiered: Tier 1 school-wide services, Tier 2 targeted group programs, and Tier 3 individualized case management, covering academic assistance, behavioral intervention, basic needs, mental health referrals, college and career preparation, enrichment, and family engagement. Named products and services include the Job Readiness Training Program (JRTP), Attendance Workshops, the Truancy Prevention Program, and Site Coordinator Services. Distribution is direct through on-site coordinators; pricing is non-transactional because services are provided at no cost to students, families, or schools.

The revenue model is donor- and grant-funded. CIS Baytown generates income through tax-deductible donations from individuals, corporations, and foundations, in-kind contributions (school supplies, food, clothing, books), volunteer time, and what appear to be government and school-district funding arrangements tied to truancy prevention and student support services. Key external relationships include the national Communities In Schools affiliate agreement, a Core strategic partnership with GCCISD, a partnership/sponsorship relationship with the Texas Education Agency (TEA), and a portfolio of corporate sponsors. The organization publishes its Form 990 on its website and operates with community-led go-to-market through school partnerships, volunteer recruitment, and word-of-mouth referrals within the Baytown educational community.
