SSV Programs

Springfield School Volunteers has programs designed to supplement the learning experience of young people in school and to help them reach their highest potential:

• School-Based Mentoring Program (Grades 1–12)
  Mentors work one-on-one or in small groups with students to support academic and social-emotional growth. Through consistent, positive relationships, mentors help students build confidence, stay engaged in school, and work toward goals they can set together.

• Read Aloud Program (Pre-K–Grade 5)
  Volunteers visit classrooms monthly (October–February) to read a book and have brief discussions with students.
