About

Simple Concept. Small Commitment. Huge Impact!

Volunteer Here! Highland Reading Friends application '19-'20

Our program involves volunteers meeting one-on-one with students at Highland Elementary in grades 3-5 twice monthly (weekly visits are ideal) to assist them with reading and other subjects. These relationships are fun and rewarding for the volunteers and lead to academic growth, positive behavior and increased self esteem in students. Volunteers must complete a background screening as well as attend a 45 minute training. 

In addition to having an outstanding working relationship with the faculty, administration and staff at Highland, we are also familiar with our volunteers and know our students very well. We assign one student to one volunteer for the school year. Throughout the year, the relationship of that dedicated volunteer and persevering student builds and becomes established. We believe in the children at Highland. We believe their futures are bright, and we believe we can help them succeed.

Rather than trying to maximize the number of students being read with, Highland Reading Friends focuses on the quality of each volunteer-student interaction and the impact it has on the student's future. 

Make a difference and brighten a child's life by being a Highland Reading Friend!
