Read with Students

Between 12:00pm and 1:30pm, Monday-Friday, the students at Our Sisters School have Silent Sustained Reading where they read a book of their choice either independently or with the help of volunteer tutors.

We are seeking volunteers- high school students, college students, or adult community members, willing to commit to at least one day per week for a minimum of one quarter of the school year (approx. 12 weeks). Tutors will work directly with individual students and/or small groups to support literacy and comprehension. Experience in tutoring/teaching preferred but not required.

Times:

45 minute sessions once (or twice) a week from 12:00pm to 12:45pm or 12:45pm to 1:30pm.

(We ask that tutors commit to a minimum of one day a week, for twelve weeks)
