Serve With Saga

an impactful year in the classroom

When you serve with Saga Education as an AmeriCorps member, you’ll get to experience a year of service in the classroom, making a difference in the lives of youth, while you learn valuable skills as a leader.

You’ll share in their wins, and help them navigate their challenges. You’ll be a critical figure in advocating for students and teaching them to advocate for themselves.

what to expect

You’ll have a year of in-the-classroom work, helping math students who need it the most.

Students who pass ninth-grade Algebra 1 are four times more likely to graduate from high school than those who do not. Helping students during this pivotal time multiplies their opportunities long after high school.

Tutors offer much more than one-on-one instruction. They’re also role models.

“Seeing my students win awards and improve their math skills has a profound effect on me. Namely that I can make a difference and that I can develop lasting relationships and impact lives.”

Darian Bolen, Saga Fellow

“I hope that my students will remember me as someone who they could trust and open up to, and perhaps a place of comfort and safety. I want my students to remember what I taught them, both in and out of the classroom and use it to their best ability in the real world.”

Nemah Afzal, Saga Fellow
