Help extend the library's reach in the community as a Kindergarten Readiness Assistant. Our Kindergarten All-Stars Program is looking for 4 volunteers to help with the 4 sessions spanning 10 weeks starting in January and ending in March. This program is similar to a Preschool environment and will be preparing 4-5 year olds for Kindergarten.

• Great for parents with free time during the day, educators, or adults passionate about early childhood development.

• This is an interactive environment and involves helping kids get started and engaged with activities, assisting 4-5 year olds with tasks with patience & respect, promote a positive classroom environment, and assist library staff with any needs during the program.
