Additional opportunities include classroom support, tutoring, contributing to the Kreiva peer mentor program, and advising the Senior Capstone Project. As an AmeriCorps member, you will actively mentor students, guiding them through their individual educational journeys within Kreiva’s experiential, real-world curriculum and community culture. Your unique strengths and passions will be instrumental in creating a transformative educational experience.
