Vista Heights is a Calgary Reads School!
We are looking for volunteers to help us improve the confidence and ability of struggling young readers and to actively promote early literacy. We would be honoured to have you join our team. If you enjoy reading and have two or three hours each week to share with a child, we invite you to help us in our mission to help Calgary’s children gain literacy skills. For more information on how you can help, please visit the Calgary Reads website at www.calgaryreads.com or email info@calgaryreads.com or Ms. Toor atsktoor@cbe.ab.ca
