Reading Buddies: ​One of our longest-running community programs, Hotchkiss Reading Buddies offers children the opportunity to read on campus with a Hotchkiss buddy! Whether non-readers or emerging readers, children can enjoy books and stories with a Hotchkiss buddy specially selected just for them. Once paired, you and the Hotchkiss student will schedule mutually convenient sessions either on campus or on Zoom.

Tutoring: ​Hotchkiss students offer on-campus or on Zoom tutoring to children in a wide variety of academic subjects. Once you register and submit your area of interest, we'll pair your child with a Hotchkiss student who will work with you to schedule mutually convenient sessions.
