Welcome to our new Summer Reads VISTAs!

Worthington District 518 recently received a grant to fund two additional VISTA positions in the Summer School program.  The Summer Reads VISTAs will work for eight weeks with kids in grades K-3rd on basic reading and literacy.  They will provide individual tutoring for a small group of students throughout the summer, as well as helping plan literacy enrichment activities with Summer School, the library, Even Start, and ABE child care.  The individual attention the VISTAs provide can be an enormous benefit to children struggling with reading.  We're so excited to see what a difference our new VISTAs will make!
