Events NOT to Miss!

READING AND TUTORING PROGRAM

We are ready to start the Reading Tutoring Program at Tuttle again for the 2018-2019 school year.  Laurel Hinds is the teacher at Tuttle who coordinates this program. It will be Tuesdays from 1:10-2:10. You must be PALS approved to work at Tuttle. This is a simple background screening. It is necessary to go to Tuttle to complete this screening on the computer in the office. Janet Shapiro would be happy to assist you with this process. Just let her know. If you were PALS approved last year, you must update your screening the first time you go. It’s very simple!

Reading is a critical skill for success. Don’t miss this opportunity to make a difference in a child’s life!  TO SIGN UP CLICK HERE.
