"The whole purpose of education is to turn mirrors into windows." -Sydney J. Harris
*UPDATE: Due to the statewide Stay at Home order, the RCLC office will be closed through April 29th. Staff can be contacted via email at LHarry@rcliteracy.org and KScott@rcliteracy.org. We are still able to do volunteer intake and match new tutors up with students from our waiting list. Now is a great time to get started!
ANNOUNCEMENT
After careful consideration, the Rowan County Literacy Council has made the decision to close the administrative office for the week of March 16th-March 20th.
As of Saturday, March 14th, the Rowan Public Library remains open with study rooms available for one-on-one pairs only; however, we encourage tutors to either postpone sessions or find an alternative method of study. If you and your student are able,Skype, FaceTime, or phone sessions may be a good temporary solution.
For tutors in the schools, no tutoring will take place the week of March 16th-March 20th. We will update you with developments from Rowan-Salisbury Schools and Rowan Public Library as they are made available.
If you have any questions, or need assistance in getting in touch with your student(s), staff will be available by email: LHarry@rcliteracy.org or Kscott@rcliteracy.org.
