“It’s funny that these surveys came out just as I was reflecting on my past high school and college experience. CIS was so important in preparing me for the level of critical thinking, writing, and reading that is required in college. I highly suggest that high school students take advantage of such classes. Thanks for the opportunity to enroll in CIS!” College in the Schools alum
