Congratulations to Maria McGinnis!  She is the winner of our Twin Oaks Hammock Raffle.  Thank you to all who participated.  A special thank you to TwinOaks Community for your generous donation.  We raised enough money to helpfund scholarships for two children to attend our six-week literacy program.

A  new poem:

A tutor can toot

But won’t use a flute.

A horn is  O K

For tooting all day,

While you find a reliable route

And you simply survive on fruit.

In just 6 weeks, children struggling with reading become happy, enthusiastic readers! Their skills improve at least 1/2 year's worth. Our tutors work one-to-one with a child, while also empowering a parent or guardian to help the child reach success. Each session consists of 30 hour-long lessons. Our methods build self-confidence and increase comprehension while we all have FUN! Need-based scholarships are now available through a grant from the Charlottesville Area Community Foundation.

Call Piper at 540-872-1999 for more information and/or to register your child.
