High School Students
Are you a teen in grades 9-12 who wants to share reading with a younger student?
IF YOU ANSWERED YES, then Reading Buddies is your answer!
Reading Buddies is a partnership between The Literacy Project and the Eagle Valley public libraries where teens in grades 9-12 from local area high schools are matched with a Little Buddy in grades 1, 2 or 3. Buddy pairs read together, play reading-based games, and participate in group activities to try to make reading FUN!
You can participate in Reading Buddies at either the Avon, Eagle, or Gypsum libraries. Our sessions meet once a week for 6 or 8 weeks. There are sessions in the Fall, Winter, Spring, and Summer. We ask you to make a commitment for a mandatory 2 hour training before the session begins and a commitment to your Little Buddy for the whole 6 to 8 week session. Of course, you might have to miss a time or two, so we do have substitute Big Buddies! If you can only make it a couple of times, you can try it out by being a substitute Big Buddy!
