Join Jubilee Park as a tutor this winter for its reading support program, Book Buddies, focused on providing additional reading instruction to students with the greatest need. Volunteers will spend 30 minutes once a week reading with their Book Buddy from January to Summer break. 15 to 30 tutors are needed. Orientation will occur virtually on Wednesday, January 7, from 5 – 5:30 p.m.
Location
Opportunities are available at Jubilee Park and Community Center, Oran M. Roberts Elementary School, and Mount Auburn Steam Academy.
Dates and Times
Reading Support Opportunities are available in 30-minute slots from 4:30 – 5 p.m. or 5 – 5:30 p.m., Monday through Friday.
What to Expect:
A 30-minute commitment each week (for at least one semester) based on your best availability, Monday to Friday from 4:30 – 5 p.m. or 5 – 5:30 p.m.
Not available every week? Mark that you would like to be placed on a tag team in the signup questionnaire to ensure your Book Buddy always has a tutor available.
Want to serve more than 30 minutes? Sign up for two slots, and we will set you up with two Book Buddies. You can tutor for a full hour, 30 minutes with each student.
Book Buddies will be paired with a student at Jubilee Park, Oran M. Roberts Elementary School, or Mount Auburn Steam Academy. Location preferences can be noted in signup.
