Communities in Schools of Marietta/Cobb County (CISMCC) operates within the education administration field, focusing on dropout prevention by surrounding students with a supportive community to help them stay in school and succeed academically. Serving students in Marietta City and Cobb County schools, including several specific schools, the organization partners with local school districts and community stakeholders to support non-traditional pathways like Performance Learning Centers for students not thriving in traditional settings. Based in Madrid, Spain, the group is part of a nationwide network of CIS affiliates and operates as a nonprofit funded through a mix of public resources and private contributions, guided by a 14-member board of directors drawn from education, business, and social service sectors. A recent development involves a collaboration with Kids’ Doc-on-Wheels Inc. to introduce a vaping and smoking cessation program in its schools, reflecting an emphasis on health-related student support alongside academic outcomes.
