To that end, we place tutors in Catholic K-8 schools in urban areas of the Twin Cities. We are currently seeking math and reading volunteer tutors to meet one on one with students in our urban K-8 Catholic schools. For more information or to volunteer, please contact Laura Hoss 651-261-5429 or lhoss@catholictutorcorps.com or visit our website: catholictutorcorps.com. |
