First Lady Cathy Justice announces the launch of her “All in for Kids” CIS Spring Road Trip

CHARLESTON, WV – First Lady Justice today announced the launch of her “All in for Kids” Communities In Schools (CIS) Spring Road Trip.  “I’m very excited to get back on the road and visit many of our Communities In Schools sites!” First Lady Justice said. “CIS does so much for our students, and I’m looking forward to meeting the CIS Site Coordinators and students that I haven’t gotten to meet yet on this road trip.” The First Lady will be traveling to CIS counties and schools over the next two months to meet with students and CIS Site Coordinators.  The road trip will begin Thursday, April 13th, in Logan County at Chapmanville Intermediate. Additional stops on the road trip will be announced at a later date. CIS aims to forge community partnerships and bring resources into schools to help remove barriers to student learning with a goal of keeping all students in school and ultimately graduating. The Governor and First Lady started their CIS statewide initiative in three counties in 2018. Since then, the program has expanded to 38 counties, serving well over 91,000 students in 208 schools across the state. This year's CIS Spring Road Trip is an extension of First Lady Justice’s “All in for Kids” CIS Summer Road Trip that started in the summer of 2021. The road trip will resume in the fall once school resumes. ###
