June 2010 What a year we have had at LVB! Over the last twelve months (July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010), LVB has served 117 adult students! We have had 14 students test successfully for their GED, and our tutors have volunteered over 1400 hours serving students! Thanks to everyone who made this year a success, and thanks to our students for all their hard work!
May 2010 LVB was awarded a grant from Dollar General Literacy Foundation! We are extremely excited to have successfully competed for this nationwide grant, and about the great things that will happen for adult learners in Bastrop County! The grant will be used to provide in-depth training for new volunteer tutors, and to purchase materials and equipment to support our growing program.
