Tutor's Responsibility
The tutor will act in a professional manor that best represents America Reads*America Counts, and themselves. Tutors will wear a name badge at all times within the Bozeman School System. If the tutor is sick, or in any other way unable to attend a session with a student, the tutor will inform the homeroom teacher as soon as possible about their absence.
We expect at least a one semester commitment out of our tutors. We try to make every effort to
give the students in our program some stability with their tutors so that a trusting relationship can form and foster growth.
