Georgia Highlands College is participating in a new tutorial center located in the freshly restored Main High School building in North Rome.
GHC is in partnership with 100 Black Men of Rome�Northwest Georgia. The tutorial center will serve primarily Rome City School students who live in the North Rome area�elementary through high school.
According to Dr. Jon Hershey, English professor, the starting hours are few but as the demand grows, the hours may increase. For now, the center is open after school on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
The Center needs volunteer tutors�faculty members or GHC students. This is an opportunity for students to help grade school students and also get experience. Education majors could participate, especially those who want to get a feel for the field, Hershey said.
The building is located at 41 Washington Drive in Rome. Those interested in volunteering at the tutorial center should contact Hershey at [email protected]
