Toombs Family Connection partnered with Toombs County Schools to implement a new pilot program called MENTOR Toombs. This program goes along with the Get TOOMBS Reading initiative that our community has been working toward for the last few years. Last month Paige Williamson, Toombs Family Connection Director, and Rhonda Benton, Toombs County Schools’ Family Engagement Coordinator, met with Leslie Hale from MENTOR Georgia to learn best practices and prepare to train other volunteers themselves. Tuesday, February 18, a group of eleven volunteers from our community met for the first official MENTOR Toombs training. During that time, participants practiced leading activities, learned WHY a program like this is important now, and took turns reading to one another to listen for sight words and better understand the mentor role. This program is focused on literacy and it’s specific to first grade students at Lyons Primary School at this time. We hope to expand to other schools and grades next year. The requirements to participate in this program are as follows: Application Background Check 4 Hour Training Weekly Commitment of one-two hours per week If you or someone you know would be interested in joining this program for the next school year, please contact Paige Williamson at familyconnection9@gmail.com or Rhonda Benton, rhonda.benton@toombs.k12.ga.us.
