Safe, Secure, and Built to Inspire
Students deserve more than just a seat in a classroom. They deserve a space that’s safe, welcoming, and worthy of their potential.
Keeping Schools Safe and Secure
Safe, well-maintained spaces are essential for learning and for showing students their futures matter. Many CISE-supported schools are over 100 years old and in need of repairs. While school resources are focused on academic excellence and student support, funding for capital improvements remains limited.
CISE helps fund critical improvements that ensure schools are safe, accessible, and built to inspire learning.

New Windows, Brighter Futures
CISE is proud to partner with St. William Parish on a capital project that brought a much-needed update to the school: new windows throughout the building. This improvement enhances the school’s appearance, improves energy efficiency, and strengthens safety by providing emergency egress — an important upgrade for the well-being of every student and teacher.
This project reflects our shared commitment to creating safe, inspiring spaces where CISE-supported students can learn and grow. It’s one example of how capital improvements — big and small — build a stronger foundation for the future.
A Principal’s Perspective
“The new windows provide more air movement, making our classrooms healthier spaces, and also offer egress in an emergency. These windows add to the beauty of our building, and they make our school functionally safer for our students.”
