Story Pals Needed at Barclay Elementary/Middle School

by Katie Horn, Community Connections AmeriCorps VISTA, Barclay Elementary/Middle


There's a whole lot of reading going on!
Books-2-Go is coming to the Barclay School! This exciting new program will provide students with beautiful books to read at home with their families, thanks to the Greater Homewood Community Corporation, Experience Corps volunteers, and Project Early I.D. After reading at home, the children and parents can earn rewards and prizes at Barclay.
Story Pals are needed to read aloud and/or be read to, by a student. This would involve 20-45 minutes, ideally once a week or a few times a month. If you would like to learn more about being a Story Pal or a Book Scout (to gather and organize free books), please contact Barclay's Community Connections VISTA Katie Horn at 443-325-3918 or khorn@greaterhomewood.org.
