About

Volunteers In Public Schools is taking our programming virtual this school year! Please read below to learn more:

We will be using Microsoft Teams for our virtual programming. Volunteers are paired to work with a kindergarten through 3rd grade student on a weekly basis for 30 minute sessions. 

Virtual Reading Friends: Reading Friends are paired to work one-on-one with students who have been identified by their teachers as needing assistance with reading skills. Volunteers commit to weekly sessions with their students for the duration of the school year. You can share your screen with your student using Microsoft Teams to share a virtual book with your student. An EBR Public Library card is helpful for Virtual Reading Friends but is not required. 

Virtual Math Friends: Math Friends are paired to work one-on-one with students who have been identified by their teachers as needing assistance with math skills.
