The Buffalo Center for Arts and Technology (BCAT), a neighbor to Canisius at 1221 Main St., is looking for tutors for high school students. Ordinarily, BCAT provides after school art classes to 75 high school students. The students also receive tutoring and other supports they need, which leads to a 95 percent high school graduation rate.
BCAT is closed now but still working with students to help them succeed. The center is seeking help from virtual tutors in a variety of subjects (sciences, math, ELA, social studies and Spanish). Tutoring takes place through Zoom, from 3:00 – 5:00 p.m. Most tutors choose two days per week to work with students. If you are interested in signing up, the commitment runs through June. Canisius students, staff members and faculty are welcome to volunteer.
