WES Tutoring Program

WES Tutoring Program

Church member Phil Stover works with children at Washington Elementary School (WES) who need additional academic help. “LaMonte Rothrock, CEO for the Cedars, asked for volunteers to tutor at Washington Elementary prior to the school day and at the end of the school day,” noted Stover. “I volunteered Tuesday and Thursday after school. Each session lasts a half an hour. I work with 3 first grade students on spelling and reading. The teachers choose the children needing help and plan the activity. By the end of the day they are sometimes restless and ready to go home, but overall they are attentive and we enjoy our time together.”
