Bridges - Connecting with our Community

BRIDGES:  GROWING OLDER, GROWING TOGETHER is seeking grandparents and adults ages 55+ for their intergenerational program with fourth grade students at Pine Glen. The program begins April 5th. and runs through May 31st. The volunteer commitment is for  six sessions one-hour sessions from 10:30 to 11:30 A.M. on Tuesday mornings.  Two volunteers work in pairs,  meeting small groups of fourth graders to share conversation and learning experiences under the guidance of the classroom teacher and the Bridges Together curriculum.  The lessons promote mutual understanding, respect, friendship and family ties.  An orientation is provided prior to the first session.  Volunteers do not need to be Burlington residents.   Contact Kathy Lawless by phone at 781-273-4109 or kathylawless@verizon.net to register.

We are SO excited to begin this program again in 4th grade!!!!
