Homework Help

Charlotte Mecklenburg Library provides weekly homework help at all library locations! Trained volunteers utilize a pop up learning space filled with learning resources and manipulatives to help your child in one of these three ways:

 

Library volunteers are available at least one afternoon a week at all Library locations to help students complete assignments, practice a skill, or connect to Library resources. Student support is available on a first come, first served basis depending on volunteer availability; no registration is required unless otherwise noted in the list below.

 

Note: While our homework help program is intended for student support, it is not a tutoring service. Volunteers provide help and guidance to the best of their ability, but are not certified teachers. Volunteers do not complete assignments for students.
