Organization Description
| Mission statement | not provided |
| Service(s) description | For the last eight years, students at Green Lake Elementary School have visited, written to, and entertained our elderly neighbors in the Hearthstone Retirement Community through our Grandpals program. Hearthstone residents are part of the fabric of the school community: they volunteer at the school as tutors and reading partners, attend school concerts and plays, and contribute to the Green Lake PTA. |
| Program impact | This program not only encourages intergenerational contact, but also promotes reading and writing in a very social, non-competitive environment. |
Community programs are organized into categories known as Community School Elements. All community programs associated with Hearthstone at Green Lake are listed below and each program may be provided at 1 or more schools. You can use the 'Show Details' buttons to learn more about each program.
