I love our America Reads program. All of our tutors show so much care for each scholar they work with, and they provide incredible support to our teachers. In many classrooms, they work 1:1 throughout class with our scholars who need it the most. This support is one of the reasons our kids are making incredible growth and our school received an "A" rating this year. Not only that, but as active college students they are role models for our scholars and help them see college as something they can achieve too!
