What is a Reading Hero? A Reading Hero is a person who desires to work with children one-on-one or in small groups. He or she is someone who conducts him/herself in a professional manner, is reliable and prompt, neat in appearance, patient with students, shows personal concern for students, and helps to widen the horizons of students.
Smoketree Volunteers: Smoketree has a partnership with several community organizations. These volunteers work with students and teachers. They have bonded with the students and feel like they are a part of the Smoketree Team. We sincerely welcome you to become a part of Cougar Country!
Smoketree has teamed up with volunteers from the Pet Partner® Program. Their mission is to share unconditional love of their pets with children through the Reading Education Assistance Dogs® (R.E.A.D) Program. This program is dedicated to improving the reading skills of children using registered Pet Partner® therapy teams as literacy mentors.

Ten Pet Partner® Volunteers came to Smoketree. Ms. Bridwell’s second grade class had the opportunity to read to the dogs and each student was given a bookmark with each dog’s picture. A fun time for the dogs and the students! |
