Phyllis Nisbett Quotations

We encourage our students to write; this is as important as the reading.

We send a notice to Sunrise suggesting that the teachers identify students who are having difficulty in reading. Reading is the key to learning.

We feel we are providing a service that is really helping these students. Some of our students remain in the program for a few years and we see great development.

We are strictly volunteers and our volunteers help supply our materials. Mrs. Edith Harper has been instrumental in helping us with supplies. Just recently she brought us pencils, pens, art paper, construction paper, markers, and writing paper. She does this out of the kindness of her heart.

At one time this was a national program. I don't know if the program is under the same name, but we have continued to teach and tutor the children from Sunrise Elementary.
