The schools that you would be placed at are: First Ward Elementary or Elizabeth Traditional and the afterschool program is Greater Enrichment, where your job will be to tutor children in reading. At the elementary schools and after school program you will be supervised by the volunteer coordinator who will assist you in setting your schedule and provide you with direction.For additional information please visit the Financial Aid website.
