Happy Service Saturday! Today we're focusing on Reading Corps! What is Reading Corps? Reading Corps, an AmeriCorps program, engages people in service while providing a monthly living allowance and an education award that can be used for college tuition or student loans. Reading Corps tutors serve part-time throughout the school year at a designated host school, with the goal of helping every child become a successful reader by the end of 3rd grade. Interested? Contact Maria Bigelow at maria.bigelow@k12.nd.us!
