Welcome to the CISLA Alumni Network!

​CISLA is committed to students’ success during and beyond high school. We invite our students to stay connected with us after graduation to continue cultivating the community of support experienced in the CISLA school program.  


The Alumni network connects members to existing alumni and mentors, provides internship placement and one-on-one support for college and trade school enrollment, and offers referrals for skills development courses and community resources.   

Whether pursuing college, a career or needing direction after high school, the CISLA Alumni Network provides members with viable resources and tools they need to #AchieveInLife!

Directed by former CISLA Site Director, Malinda Lewis, who has been a part of the organization for seven years, our work is driven by the input of dynamic alumni who have graduated from CISLA partner high schools.
