Member Spotlight: Conrad Dunklin, AIST AmeriCorps member
Meet Conrad Dunklin, serving with the AmeriCorps Instructional Support Team in Butler County. He serves at Greenville Elementary School.
What motivated you to join AmeriCorps? I was motivated to join AmeriCorps because I like helping people and children learn different things.
What would you like to get out of this service opportunity? I just want to serve others and have an impact on my community.
What will your service focus on for the 2018-2019 program year? During this program year, my service will focus on providing direct support to economically disadvantaged students in grades 3-4. Our goal is to improve performance in literacy and math as measured by the pre- and post standardized tests which demonstrates improved academic performance.
What are your plans after AmeriCorps? I plan on staying in Greenville and I want to become a good teacher.
Thank you for your service Conrad!
I appreciate Conrad’s commitment to helping children learn and making a positive difference in his community. Supporting students through consistent guidance can have a lasting impact. That idea of learning through challenges also connects with PokeSurvivor, a pokemon survival game where players develop strategies and improve with every run.
