I look forward to beginning my volunteer experience this upcoming week by working with students in the tutorial program at my school. These students are invited to attend after school tutorial programs on Tuesdays and Thursdays for help in reading and math. This is such an awesome program for our students, and often the kids love it! I think it is so awesome that they are offered individualized help in small group settings.
I've also been thinking about putting a plan into action for community empowerment for areas in my district. This is something I feel like I've been called to do for awhile now. I've always been so amazed at how kids of all socioeconomic statuses just LOVE to give to other people, even if they don't have a lot to offer. Although this would be a huge undertaking (and not something I'm sure I could do while teaching) it seems to be playing in my mind more and more frequently as where I need to be in life. So please send some positive thoughts/prayers my way as I wrestle with this issue!
