Volunteers will be paired with students ranging in age from kindergarten to 5th grade.  During a meeting with a student, volunteers can work through a school assignment, play a game, read a book, or share a hobby.  The mentoring program is more flexible in what can be done; the tutoring program is strictly literacy-based activities.  Commit to meeting with a student for either the academic semester or the academic year.

Tutor an elementary student at Orchard Ridge Elementary school once a week during the school year.  Connect one on one with a student in our community providing assistance in either math or reading.  Training provided.  No teaching experience necessary. Equip students with literacy-based skills, such as reading and writing, for students in kindergarten to 5th grade.  Commit to meeting with a student for either the academic semester or the academic year.  This program is provided through Schools of Hope, an AmeriCorps program.
