Ignite!

April 30, 2024

JES and Teach for America (TFA) partnered this school year to provide individual tutoring for eleven third-graders. The TFA tutoring program, entitled “Ignite”, occurred twice a week for an hour each session.  During the tutoring sessions, each third-grader paired on Zoom with one TFA tutor, under the supervision of Amy Covey, JES Librarian.  In sessions, tutors used specific curriculum to improve scholars’ sight word bank and reading comprehension skills.
