Children cannot learn at their potential when they are in crisis or face significant non-academic needs. Most students who drop out of school are dealing with multiple problems that present barriers to their education: poverty, unattended health needs, hunger, an unemployed parent, domestic violence.
Our mission: Communities In Schools of Central Texas surrounds students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life.
We need help in our Adult Literacy Program called ASPIRE. They would be working one-on-one or in small groups doing reading, writing, and speaking activities with beginning adult Pashto and Spanish speaking ESL students (those languages are not a requirement of the volunteer). Any amount of time is appreciated!
Tuesday, Wednesday - 9:00 - 11:30, 12 - 2
Thursday - 12 - 2
Friday - 9:00 - 11:30
