[BHS Etree] VOLUNTEERS: BHS Bridge Looking for Tutoring Volunteers

[BHS Etree]

PLEASE do not reply to this email, contact Jessie Luxford,
jessieluxford at berkeley.net



The BHS Bridge Program is looking for volunteers who are interested in
tutoring first-generation college bound students in the 9th-12th grades.
Students primarily need tutoring in basic math (algebra 1, geometry,
algebra 2) and science (chemistry and biology) classes; however, if you are
able to tutor in another subject, we can definitely use your help! It is
important to note that volunteers do not have to be an expert in any
subject area.



BHS Bridge takes place after school every day from 3:30-5:30pm. Any time
you are able to donate would be helpful! If you are unable to volunteer,
please tell a friend or neighbor who might be interested. For more
information, please email Jessie Luxford, the Bridge Coordinator, (
jessieluxford at berkeley.net).



The Berkeley High Bridge Program delivers intensive, direct, school-based
services to students and families of first-generation college candidates.
The program combines highly personalized advising with school-based
collaborative supports for the daily and yearly academic pursuits of its
students. Bridge provides the commitment of a creative and dedicated team
of support teachers while demanding a significant investment of time,
energy, and effort from students as they develop skills, competences, and
the ability to navigate the often complex pathway to a college education.


Beginning with the summer session prior to their 9th grade year, and
continuing with daily afternoon meetings, weekend study sessions, and
regular tutorials throughout their four years at Berkeley High School,
Bridge students often invest between 150 and 250 additional academic hours
per year in their education.
