- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Students everywhere have fallen behind in school due to Covid Learning Loss. This is especially true in areas already struggling with generational poverty. We go into THESE area schools and work directly with students who are suffering from factors like food insecurity, violence, trauma and illiteracy in the home. In order to have the most impact, we rely on a force of highly-trained volunteer tutors, who do very INTENTIONAL work on skills students need to succeed. If you love teaching, but don't love the record-keeping, behavioral problems and other things taking teachers away from their primary purpose, you'll love working with us! Most of our volunteers are retired teachers and professionals invested heavily in education. We pull students from class for 1:1, 15-20 minute sessions that have maximum impact. You may work daily, every week or several days per week in our NEWPORT NEWS, VA (23607) locations.
Marshall ELC with Kindergarteners: 8-10:30 AM, M-F (any or all)
Newsome Park Elementary with 2nd/3rd: 9:30-11:15A; (Tu/Th)

YOUR 1:1 time serving in this way could be the reason a child learns to read! THAT could be life-changing for a person living in poverty!
We start each Fall (OCT) and work until EARLY MAY (when student assessments are compared).

The Newsome-Bailey Project is a Christian Nonprofit based out of Newport News, VA. We are committed tutors and volunteers who work together--with the student, family and school system--to equip and empower underserved students to succeed in school and in life. We do all this for FREE. We catch the students who are starting to fall behind in class and work with them 1:1 just outside the classroom, during school hours, to get them caught up. YOU could BE the difference! This is also an opportunity to MENTOR students.
