Read On Summer Tutoring
Boost your child’s literacy, math and French skills through the Read On Summer Tutoring program!
We have multiple two-week sessions in July and August for kids entering grades 2 - 6 in September. Children are paired with a trained tutor for two weeks of daily tutoring. Each daily session lasts 45 minutes.
Tutoring sessions will be held at the Main Branch (Mon. - Fri.) and the St. Paul Branch (Tues. - Fri.) during these blocks:
1) June 29 - July 10 (no session Wednesday, July 1)
2) July 13 - 24
3) July 27 - August 7 (no session Monday, August 3)
4) August 10 – 21
Program Note: Please do not register your child(ren) for more than one session or all subsequent sessions will be removed. While tutors are specially trained and have experience working with children, they are not qualified to work with children with special needs.
Note: All Read On sessions are full. If you would like to be added to the waiting list, please fill out the Read On Tutoring Registration Waitlist.
