Our Story: STAIR-Annapolis

STAIR came to Annapolis in 2006 as a mission of the First Presbyterian Church of Annapolis, offering weekly, one-to-one tutoring sessions at the Stanton Community Center to a handful of Annapolis Elementary School second graders. We added two additional sites in 2009, another location in 2010, and have enjoyed steady growth ever since.

Now our own 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and in our 19th year, STAIR-Annapolis includes 12 locations throughout the City of Annapolis and greater Anne Arundel County, where more than 200 dedicated volunteer tutors and nearly 100 second-grade students meet each week to share books, develop critical literacy skills, build relationships, and have fun!
