2012-2013 America Reads Post # 9

Attention America Reads Tutors    

“The America Reads program hires enough qualified SLCC students to meet the literacy needs of our community partner elementary schools. SLCC students have a rewarding, community-based option through which to earn their federal work-study award.”

“America Reads was established as a national literacy tutoring program in 1993. We provide training and a high-quality mentoring experience, enriching learning opportunities for both SLCC students and elementary school students.”

Read the America Reads’ vision and mission statements above. Are we fulfilling these goals? As a tutor in what ways are you individually fulfilling this vision and mission?  What more can we do?
