City Connects

 

‘Creating the right plan, for the right child, at the right time.’
Every Student, Every Teacher, Every Year
When a school partners with City Connects, a full-time City Connects Coordinator becomes embedded within the fabric of the school. The City Connects Coordinator collaborates with teachers in every classroom to review the strengths and needs of every student, every year.
Systemic Support
The City Connects Coordinator creates a tailored support plan for every student –connecting pupils to a comprehensive range of prevention, intervention, and enrichment services that already exist in the school and surrounding community  
Students who are most at risk receive an in-depth review and a broader level of support.  
At City Connects schools, the City Connects Coordinator becomes the hub of student support — a single point of contact in an otherwise crowded maze of service providers. We help to ease the burden on principals and teachers, and we create an organized referral process for community-based partners.
City Connects is a high-impact, cost-effective system that addresses the out-of-school factors that limit learning. The support City Connects offer makes a significant impact on students — now, and years from now.
