Upcoming Events

Since 1985, Communities In Schools Dallas Region, Inc. (CISDR) has helped students at risk of failure stay in school and graduate. To celebrate our 25th Birthday in 2010, we are planning a year-long succession of celebratory events. As part of this momentous occasion, we are proud to have Alon USA as Presenting Sponsor for all of our Birthday Events.

We are especially privileged to have Barbara Hunt Crow serve as our 25th Birthday Honorary Chair. A longstanding community leader and champion of education, Barbara is a strong advocate for CISDR and will provide considerable momentum for our birthday celebration.
