Mentors work one-on-one or with kindergarten(ers) through eighth graders at one of the local elementary schools or peers in a classroom setting or an educational experience. Together, typically, they spend time playing a game, reading a book, talking, participating in physical activity, helping with class work, or getting to know one another. Mentors provide a role model for the mentee and give them the additional attention that can make a difference in their school day.
The classroom teacher supervises the Mentor activities and offers guidance. NCUHS will go over the mentoring handbook with students accepted into the program, offer support, and may offer transportation throughout the year.
Any student who demonstrates the ability to work independently is in academic good standing, wants to make a positive impact on others, and completes their personalized learning plan.
See your School Counselor and the Flexible Pathways Director.
Students must meet with the Flexible Pathways Director, adhere to what is outlined in the Mentorship Guide, and document their experience.
