Yes, we need all the background checks possible but the district, PTA or the state should foot the bill. Maybe we should make teachers pay to teach!!!<br /><br />AnnoyedAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28765366.post-47882472399603790252012-05-27T18:23:44.880-07:002012-05-27T18:23:44.880-07:00I worked in schools as a tutor, but the schools po...I worked in schools as a tutor, but the schools policy was that it wasnt 1:1, i tutored two kida at a time.<br />In one case i wasnt a volunteer but was tutoring through work study at the U.<br />It made the tutoring more difficult ( because they were friends, but didnt have the same skill set). But it madeit safer for everyone.<br />easier was when i was tutoring at the high school level. Also not 1:1, but they were older & not as competitive.<br /><br />Personally i think that the PTAs should cover at least half of the cost of volunteers if a fee is going to be incurred.<br />Parents should not be discriminated aganst if they want to help,but cant afford to pay to do so.Jet City momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14804841958585043967noreply@blogger.com
