Volunteers needed for Shady Brook

We are the Adopt-A-School partner for Shady Brook Elementary and have a very special opportunity. They are in need of consistent volunteers (weekly) for tutoring in both reading and math. Supplies and activities will be provided by the teachers and no teaching experience is needed. But, Shady Brook needs us!

Their most immediate need is for small group reading tutors for 6^th grade, Monday – Thursday from 12:30 – 1:00.

Getting these students up to grade level will have a huge impact on their junior high/middle school success.

In addition, there is a need for math tutoring in:

4^th grade 9:00-9:30 and/or 12:55-1:30

5^th grade 10:40 – 11:10

Are you the one to make a big difference?

Please contact Cathy Patrick, 832-725-9957 or ckpatrick2@yahoo.com if you are able to help. We will also try and have a pool of substitutes for those times you are unable to be on campus. Thank you for your consideration!

If you can scrub, wipe, wash, organize, or purge, we have a job for you! After months of wonderful fellowship and events in this space, it’s time to give our kitchen a much-needed deep clean so it’s ready to serve for many more gatherings.

We’ll have a list of cleaning projects ready to go. When you arrive, simply choose a task, roll up your sleeves, and help us make a difference!
