In the spirit of the 2025 Ultimate Homecoming Experience, the Office of Community Engagement and Service at NCCU, along with Durham Public Schools, seeks your support in reading to children in grades K-3 in "Eagle Village Schools" surrounding the University.
Gather at the NCCU Student Center Lobby at 8:30am to get your school assignment and transportation to the school, if needed. You will sign in as a visitor at the elementary school and get assigned to a classroom to read to your students from 9:00am to 11:15am. You will have transportation from the school to the NCCU Student Center.
Participants will earn 8 hours of service credit for their involvement in The Power of Reading: "Reading Is My Super Power" service opportunity as part of the 2025 Ultimate Homecoming Experience.
