At Citizen Schools, volunteers from throughout the community share what they know and love with kids in real-world projects. North Carolina's students have the opportunity to learn about Starbucks marketing, NASCAR careers, and law and government with Kids Voting.

Residents, school district leaders, and school officials are united in their enthusiasm for a deep partnership with Citizen Schools in a movement to take advantage of after-school time and improve the life trajectories of our young people.

Citizen Schools, North Carolina is proud to announce the launch of two new campuses in Durham and Henderson, NC. These new additions will join our three Charlotte programs as they introduce Citizen Schools' hands-on learning program.
