KEEPING THE MOMENTUM: Albuquerque Reads seeks volunteers for upcoming school year

Albuquerque Reads tutors dressed up to celebrate Dr. Seuss’ birthday earlier this year. The program is seeking tutors for the 2025-2026 school year.
Albuquerque Reads is a classroom-based tutoring program that helps struggling kindergarten-first-grade readers boost their literacy achievement to enable lifelong learning.
