Meet Lisa!

Each of the next few weeks we'll be introducing you to our new AmeriCorps members. This week it's Lisa!

Lisa Caruthers is serving as our Middle School Coordinator this year. Here's some fun information about Lisa so you can get to know her a little better!


Hometown: Nashville, TN

College Attended: Tennessee State University

In my free time I enjoy... Watching Football and reading with my son

My favorite movie is... The Color Purple

If I were irresponsible and maxed out a credit card at my favorite store, it would be at...
Sams... I don’t ask for much, but I like it in bulk…

What I look forward to most about working at the Learning Center is... Seeing the children laughing and having a wonderful time and accomplishing the small things like helping a fellow student with a homework problem or just telling someone “thank you”.

We're Back & We're Cooking!

Our elementary students had a great time this Wednesday making Rice Crispies Treats and No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter cookies. Ms. Casey, a friend of the center, came in to show them how to do it!
