A Power of One volunteer works in a Shoreline classroom |
Although the school year is drawing to a close, students at Ridgecrest Elementary need your support. Volunteers are wanted to work with students in grades 1, 2 or 3.
You would help by helping them with their reading and math skills on a consistent, weekly basis. Teachers provide materials and instruction. Shifts are available between 8:30 and 11am or 1:45-2:55pm Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursdays. Hours are also available Friday.
Anyone interested in working with young people in a classroom setting is encouraged to apply. The time commitment is at least one hour a week until the end of the school year. If this sounds like you, contact Karen Kessinger, volunteer coordinator for the Power of One Volunteer program, which is affiliated with the school district and sponsored by the Shoreline-LFP Senior Center.
All applicants must be at least 18 years old, complete an application, pass a Washington State Patrol background check and attend an orientation. Contact Karen Kessinger by email, or by telephone 206-365-1169.

The Power of One Senior Volunteer Program started in 1996 and is a partnership of the Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Senior Center and the Shoreline school district.
The purpose of the Power of One Volunteer Program is to assist the Shoreline Schools to achieve excellent education for all students. We believe as caring adults we can assist all students to become successful learners.
