School and Library Volunteer Program

---

Many Adopt-a-Class TN members are classroom volunteers who work directly with children, at all of our adopted schools,  as tutors, either individually or in small groups. Each volunteer is matched with a teacher and a classroom. This allows the volunteers to get to know the children and feel pride in their progress.

Schedules are flexible and organized directly with the teacher.  Most volunteers work 3 to 5 hours per week, either on one day or split into multiple days.  Some volunteers choose to spend more hours at school.  Volunteers may assist in any grade or class.  Volunteers may also assist in "Specials", such as PE, Art, Computer Lab, Guidance, ELL, and Chess.  Teaching experience is not required.

Classroom volunteers served for over 3,000 hours at all of our adopted during the 2021-2022 school year. 

Our volunteers come from very diverse backgrounds,  bringing a cornucopia of life experiences to their volunteer work.  Here are many of their careers:
