Tutoring Programming
Students between Kinder and 12th grade work one-to-one with a volunteer tutor for one hour each week. Each lesson is planned by a staff member and targets the individual student's literacy needs. Through tutoring, students gain confidence, thinking skills, and reading strategies. Tutoring sessions support individual interests and are aligned with school curriculum.

Teton Literacy Center’s preschool program, Literacy Lab, is a program for children ages 3-5 years old who will be entering kindergarten in one or two years, and do not have access to a preschool program. Students attend school two mornings a week from 8:00a - 1:00p through the end of May 2021.
