Science Fair Judges Needed

Goddard Education Programs has received a request for volunteers to serve as judges at:

Montgomery County Extended Learning Opportunities Summer Program, request for volunteers to assist teachers in support for tutoring students from Kindergarten to Grade 3 for building confidence and self-esteem in an Extended Learning Program summer program sponsored by the Montgomery County Public School system. Training and ongoing support for those that serve as volunteers will be provided. The Extended Learning Program focuses on building reading, writing, and mathematics skills offered in 18 county schools with the highest level of priority and will include four hours of instruction a day including breakfast and lunch.

Montgomery Area Professionals Needed, for professional representatives to make presentations to High School freshman as part of the Achievement Counts Program. This is a campaign to encourage the use of high school transcripts in the hiring process for upcoming students to be part of a qualified workforce for employers. A speakers bureau will compile those presenters willing to make presentations to ninth grades students in their classrooms about the importance of performing well in school and that what they do in school "counts" by building impressive transcripts, thus better preparing them for the future. The program will be extended to six more High schools, for a total of 12 participating schools, and are in need of potential speakers from our surrounding area. The Achievement Counts campaign is looking for articulate, energetic people of various cultural, ethnic and educational backgrounds to help deliver the Achievement Counts message. There will be a three-hour training session available prior to any visitations. Presentations will be scheduled during the month of October 2002 and should last no more than four hours at a school making two or three 50-minute presentations. For more information, please call Kathy Seay at 410-727-0448 or email Kathy@MBRT.org. Click below for the response form, which is to be forwarded to Mary D'Ovidio. Thank you for your consideration.
