Adopt-A-School

Our church's Adopt-A-School program at Idlewild Elementary School, a neighborhood public school, serves about 100 elementary students who have been identified by teachers as needing extra help in 

reading, science, math, social studies or writing. Each week during the school year, our dedicated tutors spend an hour or two at the school working with one student. We also have a Community Readers program, with great volunteers reading books to kindergarten classes.  For more information about Adopt-A-School at Idlewild Presbytereian Church please contact Committee Chair Betsy Hood, 351-7009, edhood@bellsouth.net.
