We’ve officially wrapped up our first week serving students at Kelly Elementary School in Chelsea Public Schools, and we couldn’t be more grateful! ???? A huge thank you to Principal Lisa Lineweaver for the incredibly warm welcome and support. The enthusiasm from the students, staff, and community has been truly inspiring. During #AmeriCorpsWeek, we’d also like to show our gratitude for the unwavering support of AARP Experience Corp and the shared belief in the power of older adult volunteers as literacy coaches and mentors for students in grades 1-4. ???? #AmeriCorpsWeek
关于我们
Literations is a nonprofit literacy organization dedicated to improving the reading skills of K-3rd grade students in under-resourced communities of Greater Boston. Our intergenerational model, pairing caring, highly-trained older adult volunteers with young students, is key to achieving our positive outcomes. For over 20 years, we have made a difference in young lives. From the start, our mission has always been to help young students become literacy proficient. We believe children have the most to gain from achieving literacy proficiency by fourth grade, to be confident learners, and equipped for lifelong success. We are poised to meet the need for increased 1:1 literacy support in the Greater Boston area.
