F3 is ready to grow our tutoring/mentoring program in partnership with CrossRoads Corporation. Our goal is to assist kids from Grier Heights as they make the transition to AG Middle School. In addition to tutoring starting in September, there are opportunities to assist this summer.
Summer opportunities – 2013 Freedom School
– Drive MPPC church bus (must be member of church) on June 9 and/or June 15 to take kids to/from Camp Harrison, near Lenoir. Approximate 4 hour round trip.
– Read at Freedom School (summer school program at AG Middle School) for 15-30 minutes, Tuesday – Friday mornings, one time committment
– Field trip chaperone’s – Various one time opportunities on Wednesdays or Thursdays to assist with field trips throughout the summer. Requires committment from 4:30pm to 7:30pm
These are great opportunities to “test the waters” for those who are interested but not yet ready to make a commitment to regular tutoring.
Bulldogs Matter afterschool program – Starting in September
Collaborative effort between CrossRoads Corporation and AG Middle School to improve the academic, emotional, and social readiness for identified at-risk students from Grier Heights.
Tutoring opportunity Monday thru Thursday from 3:45 to 5:45. Looking for committments of one to two days per month in order to have a constant presence in the program. Our goal is to provide a stable adult influence for the kids and guide them in establishing goals and working toward them. Only requirement is committment to show up – no prior tutoring experience required.
