The program is a drop-out initiative targeting students who would benefit from the extra attention and support the volunteer can provide. Student may be referred to the program by a teacher, principal, or parent. The program has been quite successful in helping gain a new perception of school and themselves. We have seen many children's lives changed from this bond that is created between the student and the volunteer.
Many volunteers follow their student throughout their school career.
The students really look forward to meeting with their volunteer on a regular basis. If you are interested in this program and volunteering an hour a week to help a child, please call the school at 267-3540.
