City Year San Antonio partners with the San Antonio Independent School District (SAISD). Our AmeriCorps members serve on teams that partner with eight schools on the eastside and westside of San Antonio.
AmeriCorps members focus on the whole child through academic interventions in Math and English Language Arts (classroom assistance and one on one tutoring), hosting extra-curricular activities, working to increase attendance, and doing behavioral coaching to ensure social-emotional learning.
According to a recent study (May 2020) released by Johns Hopkins University, City Year AmeriCorps members' social-emotional work helps students gain an entire year in school (students grade 3-10). COVID-19 has caused 18+ months of interrupted learning for students and it is estimated that students are between 6-12 months behind as a result. This means that City Year's work is more essential than ever to bridge the gap.
Please consider making an investment in City Year's work to ensure every student succeeds.
