Description

“It is not how many years we live, but what we do with them.”  - Catherine Booth

 

Our Literacy Volunteers work with students of all ethnicities and ages to improve skills in math, reading, writing, digital literacy, and employment. Classes include students who are

  • preparing for the GED (high school equivalency diploma) and/or placement testing to enter college (Accuplacer),
  • taking refresher subjects before starting college.
  • working on their English language skills (reading, writing, speaking, listening)

Class times include afternoons and evenings at our El Dorado and Andover campuses as well as Wichita locations including the Butler Service Center in southeast Wichita, Workforce Center in northwest Wichita, and at the Evergreen Community Center.

Informational Meetings are scheduled to introduce our Volunteer Program and answer your questions. Meeting times can be scheduled via email or phone.
