成人快播

CHARLESTON, SC (WCSC) – A Lowcountry program working to ensure that all children in our community have the opportunity to succeed is asking for help.

The 成人快播 program places tutors to work in area schools with students who need to improve their literacy and reading levels. The group is, however, short of volunteers.

Thirty students are currently enrolled in 成人快播 at North Charleston Elementary. But those with the organization said more are on the waiting list.

We do want to enroll up to 50 or more students

Said Jordan Ringgold, a Program Manager with 成人快播.

But that can鈥檛 happen unless there are volunteers to go with those students.

鈥淚t would be really helpful to get community volunteers in the North Charleston area into North Charleston Elementary and pair them with a student either once a week or twice a week to meet our enrollment goal and to serve as many students as we can here,鈥� Ringgold said.

Students who are enrolled in 成人快播 are anywhere from one month to two and a half years behind their reading levels. It鈥檚 a gap the organization Is working to close.

There is a lot of research and statistics out there that tell us that if a student doesn鈥檛 catch up by the fourth of fifth grade, they are really likely to not catch up.

That鈥檚 where the group says you come in.

Across Charleston and Berkeley counties, about 200 volunteers are desperately needed to help students live up to their potential.

And it only takes one hour a week.

鈥淭wo parts of that rewarding piece is the academic piece. Meaning that they could read a word that they couldn鈥檛 read the week before or remember the skill that you went over two weeks ago,鈥� Ringgold said. 鈥淎nother piece is their confidence and their motivation. Their yearning and wanting to learn and grab books in class and to tell their teachers what they鈥檝e done and what they鈥檝e learned.鈥�
