Light refreshments will be served. The Lab has operated a tutoring program with nearby pueblos for several years, said Barbara Grimes of CIO, coordinator of the Lab's American Indian Educational Outreach program. Grimes said Laboratory employees and subcontract personnel are needed to tutor students in grades one through 12. The students are from San Ildefonso, Santa Clara, San Juan, Tesuque and Taos pueblos. Grimes is conducting the meeting to present information to prospective tutors about student tutoring needs, grade levels of students, the location for tutoring sessions and other details.
Interested volunteers can sign-up for tutoring sessions after the meeting.
The information booth also will be set up on Sunday at the Los Alamos Chamberfest downtown and at the Lab's Hispanic Heritage Month community tent event Sept. 25 at Ashley Pond. The information booth is part of the Lab's community outreach effort to inform the public about Lab programs and activities.
