When you hear it from students, it means something!
“I am usually a negative person, but my mentor’s positivity really helps me have a better attitude.”
“When I’m down, my mentor lifts me up.”
“My mentor provides interesting insight, and is willing to listen to me”
“She is positive and can lighten up a bad situation; she rubs off on me.”
“She gives me positive feedback.”
“It helps to have an adult perspective.”
“Everyone should be more like my mentor. He’s such a great role model who always helps me see the positive side of things. There is way too much negativity in this world.”

She understands the heart beat and passion of our school leaders and teachers. “After raising our 4 kids, I know it just does not stop there. It really takes many individuals and a community to support kids, families and schools, and I love connecting the critical dots. Every child can benefit from a caring adult mentor”
