Minority Enrichment Program at Urbana High School needs tutors!

Posted on by

We have a big need for tutors in our Minority Enrichment Program at UHS.  Brigitte has done a great job of getting our UHS students to come in for lunch hour tutoring but she doesn’t have any help during 4th hour. Fourth hour is from 10:42-11:36 M,T,TH,F and 10:15-11:09 on W.  The MEP Program was started to provide extra support for minority students in upper level classes. This focus continues although any student may come in for tutoring help.  Currently, there are quite a few students who are looking for tutoring during their fourth hour lunch but no tutors available. Help in math is the greatest need.

If you are interested, contact Lori Ellinger at lellinger@usd116.org

Student tutoring volunteer needed

Posted on by

After school volunteer opportunity:  A high school teacher is looking for a volunteer who would join her once or twice a week tutoring a student at home.  When a student cannot physically make it to school for health reasons, they get assigned a homebound teacher.  We are looking for someone who could help them with Algebra homework.  Transportation is available from the supervising teacher if needed.

Interested?  Contact Laura Koterba-Buss at koterbla@champaignschools.org or 217-898-6807
