Mentoring At-Risk Youth through the Public Schools
A mentoring program has begun where small groups of at-risk students (3-5) will be paired with a mentor (or two) to meet together 1-hour each week after school. The lesson curriculum is all provided - no experience is necessary - and a comprehensive training will be offered. The small groups will cover topics like character development, goal setting, life-skills, peacemaking, and caring for others. The groups will meet on the school campus - they're fun, valuable, and proven to impact a student and even change a community. The influence of a caring adult is immeasurable and the reward is priceless! Would you consider jumping on board and becoming a mentor this year? This starts in October and will run for 10 weeks.
Share Your English
Did you know that ESL (English as a Second Language) classes are in extremely high demand? People in our community are eager to learn and/or improve their English. This provides an amazing ministry opportunity for you: Share your English! It's easy and fun. We provide a teacher to lead the class, and as a tutor, you work one on one with a student to help them practice their English. Students in the class are Intermediate and Advanced leveles. We invite you to serve your community and make new friends. Classes will start on Thursday, October 13, 6:30-8 p.m. for 8 weeks.
Reading Room
In addition to the ESL class, we will be offering storytime/homework assistance for school-age children in another classroom. Volunteers will be available to read stories out loud, perform educational activities, and offer limited homework assistance. This will take place in a fun, but purposeful environment for children in Grades K - 6th to work on their reading and literacy skills.
