Be a Part of ICCSD Community Cares

Training Starts September 19

ICCSD Community Cares: The Iowa City School District has launched a Community Cares program to support students in the district, especially to address racial discord. Volunteers have been assisting during the beginning and end of school at Northwest and South East Junior Highs.  They are hoping for enough volunteers to expand the program to all 27 schools. If you are interested, they need morning greeters (8:35-9:15) and reading buddies at the Elementary schools.  A three-hour racial justice training is required to participate; the next training is September 19th, 1p to 4p.  Contact Donna Hirst donna-hirst@uiowa.edu to facilitate your registration. A background check at https://iowacityschools.quickleasepro.com/d/apply/64179 is required.  This is an excellent opportunity to support our students and schools.
