Rochester Is in Need of Tutors!
Did you know that one in three third-graders is not reading at their grade level? And 40% of eighth-graders are not proficient in math. Be part of the solution by becoming a tutor. Rochester needs 32 tutors. Here are the details...
The plan is to place 2,000 AmeriCorps math and reading tutors in schools throughout the state for the 2017-2018 school year.
Here are the Rochester schools that need help:
Bamber Valley Elementary, Bishop Elementary, Churchill/Hoover Elementaries, Elton Hills Elementary, Folwell Elementary, Franklin Elementary, Gage Elementary, George W. Gibbs Elementary, Jefferson Elementary, Lincoln K-8 Choice Elementary, Longfellow Elementary, Pinewood Elementary, Riverside Central Elementary, Sunset Terrace Elementary, and The Place.
According to the AmeriCorps press release, "Minnesota Reading Corps and Minnesota Math Corps tutors commit to 11 months of service, during which they earn $574 (full-time) every two weeks and an education award of up to $5,815 to help pay for further education at the end of their service. Full-time tutors are also eligible for health insurance and child care assistance."
Or, call 866-859-2825.
