Reading tutors sought:

United Way of Lake County is seeking volunteers as reading tutors in Waukegan classrooms. Fifty-seven percent of third graders in Waukegan can’t read at grade level. Training will be provided for all volunteers. This program requires a commitment of one hour each week during the school year. There is also an increased need for Spanish bilingual volunteers. Training for tutors will be Sept. 3 and 4. Volunteers will begin in the classroom between the weeks of Sept. 23 and Sept. 30. Contact Sue Baehr at Sue.Baehr@uwlakeco.org or (847) 775-1032.
