High Schools

In addition to our traditional adult one-to-one tutoring programming, Children’s Literacy Project operates programs through a partnership with two local high schools - Durham Academy and Trinity High School of Durham and Chapel Hill, with plans to expand! 

Participating high school students receive the same rigorous training and have the same high expectations as our adult volunteer tutors. Students apply to participate as juniors and those selected are expected to participate as seniors for the entirety of the school term. Upon completion of the program, tutors receive P/F course credit, as well as a certificate of participation that many include with college admission applications, etc.  

Due to the longstanding success of the program, we are committed to expanding the program as we see tremendous benefit - not only to the elementary school students receiving services but to the high school tutors, as well, who learn through this experience, perhaps for the first time, the impact they can have in the life of a young child.
