Serving Students with Schools of Hope and Achievement Connections

In this episode of The S-Files, we are exploring the service done by AmeriCorps member Robin Muhs, who is currently serving with Schools of Hope and served last year with Achievement Connections, with both programs operated by the United Way of Dane County. Robin first discusses her current service with Schools of Hope at Huegel Elementary School as a literacy tutor, describing the different activities she is doing with her students. Robin then speaks about her previous AmeriCorps service with Achievement Connections, where she served as their volunteer liaison to help connect high school students needing assistance with Algebra and Geometry with remote math tutors during the COVID-19 pandemic, including her own tutoring with students at West, East, and La Follette High Schools. Listen to learn the ways that Robin’s AmeriCorps service has both impacted the academic growth of her students and her own personal growth and development for working with students in the future.
