This event is hosted by an off-campus organization. It is not a UMBC event. We are sharing it with you because of your interest in service.
USI is an out-of-school time program for 1st-4th graders at Lakeland Elementary Middle School, created with two things in mind: students' academic and personal growth. Please view the recent Maryland State Department of Education's Press Release - UMBC is one of twenty-two recipients of the 21st Century Community Learning Centers (21st CCLC) Grant Program.
DETAILS
- Lakeland Elementary Middle School is located in South Baltimore, 15 minutes from UMBC. Transportation to the site will be provided.
- USI Fellows were just selected to manage the program in partnership with Lakeland teachers and staff.
- The program will run Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, 2:30-6:30 pm.
Volunteers have the ability to plan/facilitate one enrichment activity per week (i.e. sport; robotics; chess; performance arts);
- Training will begin soon (mid-October)!
- This is also a great opportunity for aspiring elementary teachers who could strengthen their science and math skills by being paired with Fellows who have STEM backgrounds. Graduate students are welcomed to apply!
Interested?USI is seeking 4-5 volunteers per day, M-Thurs. There is the chance to volunteer more than twice a week. Please complete the very brief Volunteer Application.We still need a few volunteers to commit each week, ideally 4-5 volunteers each day.
