College of Education ) Children's Literacy Project

Seattle University Children's Literacy Project recruits, trains, and supports volunteer tutors in our partner Seattle Public Schools. Our aim is to foster the academic support and encouragement children need to succeed and thrive. We serve children in the community close to Seattle University and have tutoring opportunities in elementary and middle schools. Volunteers work in the schools during school hours to help students become better readers, to improve academic performance, and to increase self-esteem and motivation to learn.
