Around the Canyon, week of Dec. 23, 2009
Elementary School is looking for volunteers
Do you want to positively impact the life of a child? Would you be willing to volunteer some time at Grand Canyon school in the new year?
School officials are looking for people to work with elementary students one-on-one to: increase reading skills and to practice math facts.
Officials added that they are looking for a time commitment of at least 30 minutes at a time. Once a week, every other week, every other day, whenever it fits into your schedule! If you would like to donate some time to help our students succeed, please contact Wendy Horner, wendy@grandcanyonschool.org or 638-2461 ext. 106, for more information.
