STAIR OF BIRMINGHAM (Start the Adventure in Reading)

I have been a STAIR tutor (Hudson Elementary) and now serve on the Board of Directors. I have seen STAIR at work - and it truly works. And, I have seen the administrative structure at work - that, too, WORKS! The custom-written curriculum combined with one-on-one tutoring succeeds in raising reading ability of 2nd grade (and now 1st grade) students who struggle to master the basics of early reading skills. If I could, I would do anything to offer this program to as many students - in Birmingham and beyond - because I know it works. The satisfaction of seeing my student improve over the school year was tremendous - maybe as much for me as for him. I encourage you to become a volunteer today! Tutor training is usually in late summer. It is concise, just a few hours, but very well done. If you can spare one or two afternoons (roughly 3:30-5:00) a week to help a child get on the road to academic success, please DO! Thank you!

STAIR tutors have an incredible opportunity to partner with students & families in Birmingham and help students become stronger readers. Highly recommend!
