Start The Adventure In Reading (STAIR-Annapolis) is a twice-weekly, AFTER SCHOOL literacy tutoring program for Anne Arundel County Public School first and second graders currently reading below grade level. STAIR is looking for tutors to work one on one with students at our Annapolis sites and to choose a location that is most convenient for you. We are currently in need of substitute tutors. Substitute tutors work with a student for an hour 15 minute-long session on days when the child's regular tutor is sick or on vacation. The Site leaders will text and ask for availability and substitutes can accept or decline. STAIR offers a comprehensive 2 hour training program for all tutors and use an educator approved curriculum.

Forty five minute Zoom information sessions for New volunteers are regularly scheduled in the Fall and Spring. This information session will be an overview of STAIR and an opportunity to ask questions and learn more about our program. Please contact volunteer_coordinator@stairannapolis.org to learn about the next scheduled session.

Following the information session,there will also be a one-and a half hour curriculum training in early December.
