Pcls summer xp program

Painesville City Local Schools have been hard at work developing healthy, sustainable summer programming that is COVID safe and educationally effective.  The heart of this vision is their Summer XP Program.  This program will not only challenge, encourage and support students educationally but also their families as the program will tie directly with their summer Lunch Box food delivery program. 

In an effort to support this exciting program Catalyst Ministry has been invited to recruit volunteers.  This volunteer opportunity will allow folks to read with, review simple math or play simple games with students and their families.  As this is a PCLS sponsored activity all volunteer activity will be overseen by certified teachers and board office members and be in full accordance with Lake County Health District directives.
