From Kenway Hoey, EAR (Everyone a Reader) Program coordinator at Curie Elementary:
Would you like to see a child beam with joy after reading a book without difficulty? Curie Elementary is planning to restart the reading program in January 2023. The school is seeking volunteers to tutor students (grades 1-3) to improve their reading proficiency using the SD County’s Office of Education Everyone A Reader (EAR) program.
Volunteers will be assigned 4 students and work with them 15 minutes per session, twice/week on a Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday schedule with a 5 minutes transition time between students. The time commitment is about 3 hours /week.
A training period of 2 hours (by video) will be provided before tutoring the students. A SDUSD volunteer application, a background check and a negative TB test or a completed questionnaire at the school nurse’s office will need to be completed.
Please contact Kenway Hoey at khoey2010@gmail.com if you wish to help out with this program. Thank you.
