Informational Rotary Readers Meeting Oct 21 at Biaggi's 11:15 a.m. This is your chance to learn more about the program and see if it might be a good fit for you this year. Also don't hesitate to invite relatives or friends that might be interested. It's a great chance to give back, know your time is well spent and appreciated, and most importantly HAVE A POSITIVE IMPACT ON OUR FUTURE. Literacy is key for success
Calling all Rotarians with an hour to spare each week. Rotary Readers is starting up again after a two-year hiatus with COVID. It will be sometime in October before we can start because of matching volunteers with the students' schedule. You spend a half hour with one or two students each week at Skinner School.
This is a worthwhile and rewarding project we have done for years with Skinner School on 28th & Ames near North High. You don't have to be an instructor, simply willing to sit with a 1st or second grade student while they read to you for half an hour. The primary purpose of this program is to give the child consistency and encouragement with a weekly meeting. Of course if you have vacation or the school is closed for weather or inservice, you are excused. The main thing is to keep the teacher abreast of any absences. Please contact Susan Thomas, Bonnie Gill or Jennifer if you are interested in volunteering for the program.
