STAIR-Annapolis, Start The Adventure In Reading, is a twice-weekly, AFTER SCHOOL literacy tutoring program for AACPS second graders reading below grade level. The STAIR Site Coordinator/Leader is instrumental to the success of our organization. We are currently in need of Co-Site Leaders at Eastport Elementary, Tyler Heights and Severn Elementary Sites for the 2023/2024 school year. No experience necessary and we offer training! Site Leaders have the opportunity to work with each of the 6-10 children at their site. This is a great volunteer opportunity for retired teachers and reading specialists, as well as recently retired professionals. Site Leaders work in teams to ensure each STAIR site is a safe, welcoming, organized place for fun and learning. Site Coordinators are the leaders at their site and are provided training and all the necessary materials and support to lead a successful site. Site Leaders communicate electronically with the staff and the volunteers at their site to ensure consistent delivery of the STAIR program. Site Leaders also assist with tutoring students as substitutes when the need arises, and are able to track and monitor the progress of all students at their site. You will also have the opportunity to shadow and substitute as a tutor after training to become more familiar with the role.

The dates of the information session will be October 10th from 12:30-1:30 The information sessions and initial training will be held at The Michael Busch Library on West Street.
