SITE MANAGER Job Description Position Summary The CIS mission is to
surround students with a community of support, empowering them to
stay in school and achieve in life. CIS establishes partnerships
among service agencies, business organizations, community members
and the school to effectively provide the vital non-academic
resources and supports that low-income and disadvantaged youth need
to succeed and stay on the path to graduation. Through site
coordination and case management the site coordinator will connect
the school and students with the following tiers of support, which
address school wide as well as individual needs. Tier I : Widely
available services designed to foster a positive school climate and
address school-level risk factors. Tier II : Targeted services
typically provided in a group setting to students with a common
need. Tier III : Intensive, individualized services typically
provided in a one-on-one setting to students with highly specific
needs. Through the work of CIS, partnerships are built that bring
comprehensive resources and supports into the school to meet the
needs of at-risk students and address risk factors related to
drop-out. For the 2020-2021 school year and due to the
ever-evolving COVID-19 pandemic, these integrated student supports
