Calvary partners with staff and students at West Avenue Elementary School (15th & West Ave.). West Avenue is part of the Waco Independent School District and serves students K-5th in the Sanger-Heights Neighborhood. You may get involved as a Reading Club Leader or a Mentor.
Reading Club Leaders meet with 2-3 students once a week during the students' lunch period. During this 35 minutes, the leader and children read grade level books together to improve literacy.
Mentors work with students in a classroom setting to help the student improve academically and provide accountability for the student. Mentoring sessions are typically less than one hour per week for the academic year.
