Communities In Schools of Nevada (CIS), the nation’s leading evidence-based stay-in-school organization serving 118 Nevada schools with regional offices in the Clark, Elko, Humboldt and Washoe County school districts, announces the appointment of new board member, Mary Schwandt of Acha Construction, an Elko, Nevada-based company.
Schwandt, a resident of Elko, is a senior project manager with Acha Construction and also serves as the president of Valor Traffic Control. A six-year veteran of the U.S. Army, she has a strong background in discipline and teamwork, which she honed during her service. Schwandt is also a former student of Communities In Schools and credits much of her success today to the support she received from CIS.
