Connect Mentoring ProgramThe counseling department works in partnership with the Connect Mentoring Program to provide support for students. Volunteer mentors are matched with students to provide invaluable mentoring that make an impact on student academic success and social-emotional well-being.
Student Selection Students are recommended for the program by school counselors, the school social worker, the school psychologist, and teachers. Students are then interviewed and are selected if they are motivated and have parental approval. Students in the program have a variety of needs. Some need help preparing for life after high school, while others need skills to help them be successful in high school.
