Opportunities for mentoring occurs each term. Mentoring is a committed relationship between a college student and a WHS student for the duration of a term. During that time WHS students must set academic/personal goals to work on during their time together. College mentors meet family members and discuss activities before engaging in any actions. Mentors provide another person to sound off ideas and someone to help with positive decision making. Activities are determined with between WHS student, their family and the JMU mentor. In the past activities have included time talking at the park or at Klines, accompanying students for activities at JMU or other planned P&G events, or time spent at a WHS event.
JMU students have spent hours training to be positive mentors with WHS students. Mentors are matched with interested students and meet for the first time during family night (September 18th).
Ready to go!
