The Friendship GardenThank you for your interest in setting your child up for lifelong success by providing
him/her with the opportunity to have a safe, nurturing, and high-quality early education

students are interested in pursuing careers within the field of Education or Family
Services.

experience, where volunteer children from our community are taught and led by high
school students. These secondary students are supervised and guided by a certified
classroom teacher.Our class meets on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday from 10:30-11:45 am from
September to early June. This program is free of charge.If you are interested in having your child become one of our volunteer
participants, please read the following information prior to completing this application.
