The Issaquah School District’s VOICE Mentor Program is looking for community volunteers to work one on one with Issaquah students. Students are referred by teachers and counselors as needing extra support whether it is academic, social or emotional.

VOICE stands for “Volunteers Of Issaquah Changing Education.”

The volunteer commitment is one hour per week through the school year. Volunteers work in the school setting in partnership with the school staff.

Placements are made based on the mentors’ interests, location preference and time availability. Whether a mentor’s passion is literacy, ESL students, math or another area, VOICE organizers have a place for you in Issaquah schools. Help recruit your neighbors, friends, relatives or colleagues to become a mentor.

For more information contact VOICE Mentor Director, Susan Gierke, at VOICE@issaquah.wednet.edu, or 425-837-7139.
