About the event

Teacher in the Library Launch Party
Starting September 2, Fort Bend County Libraries will offer a “Teacher in the Library” free homework-help service at George Memorial Library, located at 1001 Golfview in Richmond.

The Kick-Off Party for this new program will take place on Saturday, August 16, from 2:00 to 4:00 pm, in the Meeting Room of the library.

Fort Bend County Judge KP George will be joined by Library Director Roosevelt Weeks in kicking off the festivities with opening remarks at 2:30 pm.

Families will have an opportunity to meet the teachers and enjoy refreshments, giveaways, and fun! They may even have a chance to meet and take photos with the program’s mascot – Artemis “Artie” the Owl!

Craft and STEM activity stations will be set up for children to enjoy in the Youth Services department. Children will also have an opportunity to hear stories during a special Story Time in the Children’s Corner of the department.

Refreshments for the event are generously provided by the Office of Judge KP George.

The Teacher in the Library service provides FREE homework help for students in grades 3 through 6 by providing access to qualified teachers in the library for after-school assistance.

Two teachers will be available Monday through Thursday, from 3 to 6 pm, beginning September 2, at George Memorial Library to help students:

• complete homework assignments;
• prepare for tests;
• improve study habits;
• learn about library databases & electronic resources; and
• grow in confidence.

The goal of the program is to supplement and reinforce the lessons being learned in the classroom and to increase students’ self-confidence and motivate them to succeed. Students receive one-on-one attention from experienced teachers in a safe, comfortable environment.

Appointments are not required. Students may arrive anytime during the tutoring sessions on any day the service is offered, as their schedules permit or as homework needs arise. They can choose to attend as often or as little as needed. There is no cost to participate.

George Memorial Library is the third library in the Fort Bend County library system to offer the Teacher in the Library program. The service was launched in 2023 with a pilot program at the Mission Bend Branch Library. In 2024, the program was expanded to include the Missouri City Branch Library.
