Learn and Serve at The Intergenerational School and Case

Case Western Reserve University's (CWRU) College Scholars Program (CSP) will expand its partnership with The Intergenerational School (TIS), an innovative, high performing urban community school, by developing and operating a multigenerational After School Reading Club. Undergraduates in the CSP, a leadership and service learning-oriented multiyear curriculum, will work as partners with older TIS students in serving a group of younger TIS students in an after-hours reading/tutoring program. School teachers and TIS's older adult, trained volunteer Reading Mentors will guide the program. Case students and TIS students will become experts in literacy tutoring and work collaboratively with teachers and volunteers to find better ways of enhancing after school program effectiveness.
