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.

By years end, 2007, 370 CARES volunteers participated in one of CARES six programs: The mentoring program, Classroom Volunteering, E-Mentoring, Homework Clubs, CARES Career & College Center and SK High School’s Project Success. |
