  • 5 people are interested

Learning Partners/Tutors are school-based, academic-focused mentors assigned to a program site for one semester or longer. They are assigned to work with youth at least one day a week; elementary and middle school assignments are typically after school from approximately 3-6 pm during the fall and spring semesters. Summer semester hours vary between 10 am and 3 pm.

Volunteers would be assigned to elementary school (Longmont site) cohorts for 2 hour increments between 4-6pm during the Fall, Spring and Summer semesters.

Learning Partners/Tutors support a cohort of students under the direct supervision of the Program Director and their team with academic tutoring and SEL (social-emotional learning). volunteers would be matched with one to four 1st graders as Learning Partners/Academic Mentors. This would entail participating in circle time and daily programming activities, building meaningful relationships while eating snacks and playing games, and also guiding meaningful math and reading activities. All volunteers are expected to act as positive and stable role models for Dreamer Scholars.

Program site is located in the city of Longmont.

About "I Have A Dream" Foundation of Boulder County

Location:

5390 Manhattan Circle, Boulder, CO 80303, US

Mission Statement

Mission: To empower children from low-income communities to succeed in school, college, and career by providing academic, social, and emotional support from elementary school through college, along with a post-secondary tuition assistance scholarship. Vision: Our dream is a world where all children have equal access to the educational and career opportunities that will ignite their innate potential.

Description

Since 1990, IHDF Boulder County has served more than 1,000 local youth, and currently has 12 active Dreamer Scholar Classes. The model, with its one-on-one attention and daily programming, has proven to narrow the opportunity gap. Dreamer Scholars graduate from high school, enroll in post-secondary programming, and complete their post-secondary education at much higher rates than their low-income peers.
