Goal reached

We are proud to say that after almost two years of dedication to a strong goal to serve our country in the military, DC passed the ASVAB  (the military entrance exam)!  A huge thank you to DC's terrific tutor who, along with DC, was dedicated and committed to the achievement of his goal.

Workshop status

Because of COVID-19 and understanding the comfort and safety levels, we are in the process of working on changing our workshop to combined virtual sessions and one short in-person session. We hope to have a planned quality workshop ready to go by  mid-August. The need for our services has not gone away.  We still need tutors.  Email us at charlescountyliteracy@comcast.net for information and updates.

Office Update

The office itself may be closed, but COVID-19 isn’t stopping us. CCLC is open and continues to tutor with virtual distance learning. Nothing can beat face to face, but when you have a computer, laptop, tablet or even a cell phone, tutoring (or learning) can and will continue. We are in the process of working on changing our workshop to combined virtual sessions and short in-person session.  We still need tutors.  Tonight, July 7, at 7 pm we will have our monthly Zoom meeting.  If interested in joining and learning more, email us at charlescountyliteracy@comcast.net to get the meeting information.

Keeping in touch

CCLC hopes you and your family are staying safe and strong during this unconventional time. This has been a very uncertain time for all of us. With the development of the COVID-19, CCLC has had to cancel all in-person tutoring.  Although we had to stop in-person tutoring, we have been exploring new boundaries of virtual distance learning and encouraging and supporting virtual tutoring where possible.  The current situation has stirred dedication and resilience from all of our volunteers and students. Because we all know – Literacy Does Matter. 

Virus

In response to the recent state of emergency regarding the COVID-19), the Charles County Literacy Council will follow announcements from Governor Larry Hogan, the Maryland Dept. of Health, the Charles County Dept. of Health and the Charles County Public Schools. As precaution for all we are suspending tutoring until further notice. Our Program Coordinator will be teleworking from March 17 through April 24. She will be available through email during our regular office hours, Monday - Thursday, 9:30 am - 1:30 pm. Our email is charlescountyliteracy@comcast.net.  As you read this, please remember that there are those who cannot.  Literacy Does Matter.
