Qualifications

We welcome students who are motivated, detail-oriented, and committed to participating in multiple aspects of research and developing partnerships with the community. Students who volunteer with the Home-School Connections Research Team must have:

  • A strong interest in early childhood, language, literacy, culture and/or education
  • The ability to work both collaboratively and independently
  • The highest level of professionalism (getting to meetings on time, detail-oriented, competent, reliable, kind, and mature).
  • The desire to work with early childhood children in a classroom setting.
  • The ability to commit at least six hours a week.

As a portion of our work is conducted in Spanish, fluency (writing, reading & speaking) is a plus, but not required.
