May students employed as reading tutors under the FWS Program tutor children in parochial schools?
Yes, under certain conditions. A parochial school may be eligible for a 100 percent federal share if it is classified as a private, non-profit school by the Internal Revenue Service or a state taxing body. Under the statutory and regulatory requirements for the FWS Program, the work may not involve constructing, operating, or maintaining any part of a building used for religious worship or sectarian instruction. Also, students employed as reading tutors may not use religious material to tutor the children.
