There are many ways you can get involved! 
 
VisionsOne Young Scholars Project is searching for honest, passionate and commited people to head up our further projects to raise funds for 'saving our schools'.
 
We are also searching for people who have a special drive to assist these children by going into the classrooms during day instruction and providing one-on-one tutoring, therefore, reducing the teacher/student ratio from 35:1 down to 11:1 which promotes small group learning in a more calm and construtive atmosphere. 
 
In addition to the huge benefit to the student, the teacher actually reduces her load of students by 2/3.  This is a win, win situation....Get involved now!
