For more than 16 years, Mike Scanga and the team from Bicycle X-Change have provided bicycles to Communities In Schools of Wichita/Sedgwick County students. And, this year is no exception.  On Wednesday, December 14 at 1:00 pm CIS Site Coordinators picked up 50 refurbished bikes from Bicycle X-Change.  Students who received the bikes were chosen from the 18 schools where CIS is present. These students were selected by the CIS Site Coordinators based on need, good behavior and/or scholastic achievement.

Thank you to all who participated and helped make this Christmas a little more special.

Communities In Schools (CIS), the nation’s leading organization dedicated to empowering students to stay in school and achieve in life, recently released results of a five-year, comprehensive longitudinal evaluation. The national evaluation, conducted by ICF International, found that CIS is the most effective dropout prevention program in the country, and the only dropout prevention organization in America proven to both decrease dropout rates and increase on-time graduation rates.
