ROW is currently involved in three elementary schools for the school year of 2024-25.

You can read about the schools we currently volunteer with here.

You will be provided list of available students, their teacher’s name, grade level and available days and times of the week that student can be read with.

You then get to choose what works best with your schedule.

A representative of ROW will meet you at the school before your first ROW session to show you around the school and orient you to the program.
