C.A.R.E.S. Program Goals

The goals of the CARES program are these:

To relieve the teacher of non-professional chores, thus providing more time for instruction.

To offer individual help to children who are not
working well in a group situation.

To enrich the school program by making available
the talents and resources of the community.

To stimulate an informed community to more actively support public education.

CARES is a segment of BCISD's Community Education program and is a joint undertaking by the schools and the community. All CARES volunteers are registered with the Community Education office after they fill out a registration form. Once a potential volunteer clears the state-mandated background check, they will receive training at the beginning of the school year or one-on-one with the campus CARES coordinator at a later time.
