the Community Liaison Committee

What we do:

The Community Liaison Committee is the main liaison between the CITA and the Community. Responsibilities include:

  • Scholarships for Graduating High School Seniors: The committee, in conjunction with the Scholarship Committee, coordinates the collection of scholarship funds and the selection of the recipients.
  • Standard Scholars: The committee coordinates the presentation of awards to high achieving students from grades 2 - 11. The awards are presented at the end of each marking period at School District Board Meetings.
  • Rising Stars: The committee coordinates the presentation of awards to students from grades K - 1 who demonstrate generosity and citizenship. The awards are presented at the end of a marking period at School District Board Meetings.
  • Local Organizations: The committee joins the Central Islip PTA Council and attends their meetings.
  • In addition, the Community Liaison Committee will be the face of the CITA in the community. This will involve the coordination of various volunteer efforts throughout the school year such as a PRONTO food drive, sponsoring and running a room for the High School Safe Halloween, or helping out at the Knights of Columbus.
