Guadalupe Center - After-school Tutoring Program
Walden is a bright and energetic first grader at Lake Trafford Elementary. This fall when he joined the Guadalupe Center After-school Tutoring program he was performing below grade level in reading. Typically first graders should be able to identify a minimum of 70 sight words. Walden only knew 40. Through strategic academic support, Walden is thriving and now knows more than 120 words! In addition to gaining confidence in his literacy skills, he is also working on sportsmanship and being a good listener. Walden's story is one example of how a strong educational foundation leads to success.
