BRIDGES Together in Burlington starts at Francis Wyman on October 5th! Do you know anyone who might be willing to volunteer? We need adults ages 55 and over willing to spend one hour a week with fourth grade students for six weeks, beginning Thursday October 5 from 12-1PM.  The program ends before Thanksgiving. Classroom teachers lead the lesson and volunteers spend time talking with students to build a relationship and get to know one another. Two volunteers work with a group of 4-6 students.  An orientation is provided for new volunteers prior to the first session, and volunteers do not need to be Burlington residents.   Contact Courtney Wasserburger by phone at 781-273-4109 or register online at http://tinyurl.com/bridgestogether1718, or through Facebook (Bridges Together Burlington).
