S.E.E.N. in Need of Volunteers

S.E.E.N. (Seniors Encouraging Education in Norfolk) is in need of volunteers. This is a wonderful program which allows seniors to volunteer theirtime in our schools. Volunteering can be on either a regular or occasional basis.

Both the children and seniors benefit immeasurably from the interaction. For a good number of students, this may be one of the few opportunities they have to spend with a grandparent figure. The seniors, in turn, benefit from the knowledge that they have helped make a difference to an elementary school child.

Currently, teachers in both elementary schools are looking for senior citizens to volunteer in this classrooms. If you, or someone you know, would like to participate in the S.E.E.N. program please contact Norfolk TPA representatives Patti Walsh at (508) 520-8731 or Deb Capparelli at (508) 520-6869.
