Everyone wins in this after-school tutoring program
By Monty Siekerman
ONU students are offering free tutoring in reading to students in grades 1 to 6 at ReStore Community Center from 3:30 to 5 p.m. on Mondays and Wednesday's through the first week of December when the college students go on break.
Here, Cameron Wykes and Julie Handel enjoy building some objects with "Brain Flakes" before starting to read.
Psychology professor Ann Johnson heads the program which is offered free due to a grant the university received. The student helpers come from several ONU colleges and departments.
Nine youngsters were on hand Monday for the tutoring. New students are welcome to attend.
