What does a Communities In Schools of Peninsula (CISP) Site Coordinator do?
It’s a question we hear often—and the truth is, no two days look the same. In a single day, a Site Coordinator might plan a parent information night, connect with a new volunteer to support students with reading, attend a meeting with counseling staff, and respond to a teacher’s request to help a newly arrived student feel prepared and welcomed. The work is fast-paced, ever-changing, and rarely predictable. But at its heart, it’s about connection—linking students and families to the right resources at the right time. Even on the busiest days, there’s a deep sense of purpose in knowing that support is reaching the students who need it most, helping them feel seen, supported, and set up for success.
