What We Offer
|
|
 La
Escuelita serves children from infants to middle school, and also assists
parents when the need arises. Our primary emphasis is on English language
skills: speaking, listening, reading, writing, and vocabulary. During the
summer (usually in June) we offer enrichment activities. These have
included visiting museums, camera workshops, cooking workshops, going to
the circus, quilting workshops, "creek stomping" in the country, and
nature walks. |

|
Our Preschool served over 40 children last year. Beginning this fall,
all preschoolers will attend four days a week. Preschoolers whose parents
are not enrolled in English as a Second Language (described below) are
picked up at home and returned after school. This program is free to
parents. |
|
|
School-age
children also receive help with math and other academic subjects. These
students come one afternoon a week for 1 1/2 hours. They are picked up
from school and returned home at the end of their session. Our program
served over 40 students last year. It is also free to parents! |

Become a Volunteer Tutor!
Our
goal is to have one tutor for each school-age student, though sometimes a
tutor will have two students. Volunteers range from middle school students
to retired persons. Most volunteers come once a week. Senior high student
can receive up to one high school credit hour by tutoring a hundred hours.
The main requirements for a tutor are the ability to carry out a lesson
plan, some patience, and the willingness to accept and encourage a child. |
