Cambridge School Volunteers is looking for mentors to support students at the Rindge School for Technical Arts in completing online safety training when school starts in September. Volunteers will assist students with vocabulary and reading comprehension as they work through online modules related to their technical education. Students cannot move into the classroom workspaces until they have finished all the units, so mentor support is vital to help students progress. No prior experience is necessary!

Volunteers are needed in September during Blocks 1 (8:35-10am) and 2 (10:05-11:30am). We need volunteers every weekday during these two class periods.

Training and on-going guidance for mentors will be provided.

Please contact Catalina Rojas at crojas@cpsd.us with questions.
