Welcome to SK CARES!

 
South Kingstown CARES grew out of a 1995 District PTO survey on volunteer usage in schools. That survey showed that the use of volunteers in the schools was dependent on the efforts of an individual teacher or community member. It concluded that a coordinated district-wide program would benefit both our students and our community.

That conclusion was reinforced by the School Committee's primary strategic goal of community involvement and by Rhode Island's Goal 2000, which specified parental and community involvement as one of the key components of school improvement.

During the 2008-2009 school year, 346 CARES volunteers participated in one or more of CARES four programs:


The service you provide is vital to the success of those that attend. It really is one of the "thousand points of light" in our community.
