ORGANIZATION: Communities In Schools of Tacoma

Communities In Schools of Tacoma

Want to make a difference in the lives of students? We need you!

Our All-Star Reading program is looking for volunteers to be reading buddies with students at Fern Hill Elementary. The 1st-3rd grade students in this literacy program are reading below their grade level and we need you to help increase their reading capabilities.

If you like to read and would like to assist students in reaching their reading goals, this is the perfect fit for you!

The after-school program takes place every Tues. & Thur. from 4:00 - 5:15 pm, with during-school tutoring now available for those with a more flexible schedule.

We look forward to meeting you!
