These partners may choose to speak with their student several times a week, or meet at other times for additional tutoring session. Other partners meet for lunch, take their students to ball games, or go to the movies. However, each partner decides how involved he or she would like to be. In addition to your relationship with your student, you may also want to get to know the student's family, teachers, coaches, etc. If you are unable to attend a tutoring session, please call your student and the College Bound office as soon as possible.
Occasional absences are understandable.
However, if a partner is no longer able to make regular weekly meetings, it will work better for the student and organization if alternative volunteer opportunities are identified.
