Lakeshore Intergenerational School Is Looking for Volunteers

Lakeshore Intergenerational School is very excited to begin its 5th year as a high performing charter school in North Collinwood.  This year we are educating children in grades K-6.   We are currently looking for community members interested in serving as tutors, reading mentors and volunteers for the 2018-2019 school year. These important positions allow our students to enhance and enrich their learning with intergenerational partners who are committed to the education of the youngest members of our community.

Reading Mentors are paired with students to share in the love of reading books, meeting with students weekly for 45 minutes to an hour. Math tutors are individuals who are looking to give back by assisting students with math skills. Volunteers who can assist with special activities now and then would also be welcome additions to our intergenerational family.

We are also looking for neighborhood individuals who may have a talent, skill, sport or hobby they would love to share with our students either during the day, after school or on the weekends.  These opportunities could be one time only or on a weekly or monthly basis.  We would love to engage our neighbors in the areas of art, music and drama.  We know the talent is out there – please consider sharing with our students!

Lakeshore Intergenerational School offers flexible scheduling, training, and paid background checks to all volunteers. If you are interested in any of these great opportunities please contact Ms. Kaitlyn Taranto at 216-586-3872 or ktaranto@lakeshoreschool.org.
