Do you know someone 50 or older who would be interested in helping a child build confidence and succeed in reading and math?

Oasis Intergenerational Tutoring pairs volunteers aged 50 and above with students in grades K–3 to provide one-on-one support each week throughout the school year. Volunteers can work with one child or several students as tutors, mentors, and friends, helping students strengthen their reading and math skills while building meaningful relationships.

The district is also expanding the Watch D.O.G.S. (dads/guardians of great students) safety program at each K-8 building in the district. If you are interested learning more about this program or volunteering even 1 day a year as a Watch D.O.G.S. in your child’s school.

Watch D.O.G.S. is a national innovative program focusing on the prevention of violence in our children's schools by using the positive influence of fathers and father-figures for two purposes:

1) To provide positive male/adult role models for the students, demonstrating by their presence that education is important.

2) To provide extra sets of eyes and ears to enhance school security and reduce bullying. WATCH D.O.G.S. are fathers, grandfathers, uncles, and any other father-figures who volunteer as a positive presence for at least one whole school day each year at an official WATCH D.O.G.S. school.

Please contact the Coleman office if you are interested in serving as a WATCH D.O.G.S. at Coleman Elementary.
