Reader

Spark the joy of reading through the magic of a shared book! This is a weekly, one-hour volunteer commitment at a local elementary school or preschool. Volunteer Readers provide literacy support to kids and help foster a love of reading through fun, child-guided reading sessions. At some sites, Readers read one-on-one with students, and at other sites, a volunteer leads an interactive read-aloud for a classroom. After applying, SMART Reading staff will work with the volunteer to find a school placement that works for their location and schedule. All volunteers complete an online orientation and on-site training.
