Hi Teen Mentors
Sponsor: TaMesha Hickey - hickey.tamesha@fcboe.org
Mentoring is an opportunity for high school students to make a positive impact on the life of a child. The program focuses on assisting children in developing relationship skills, building positive life skills, and improving academic proficiency. This could be as simple as reading a book with a student, helping them with their homework, or playing a board game. Mentors meet with students at our local elementary schools before school (7:15am-7:40am) or after school (4:00pm-5:00 pm) with students in the After School Program (ASP).

Knitting and Crochet Club

We hope to give students a way to meet new people outside of their grade and therefore build community within our school among people with similar interests (i.e. crafting and the woolen arts). We plan to use our talents to create projects that will be donated to various organizations and members of our community as a way to create a purpose for our talents. Ultimately, we also hope to just have fun learning new skills that can become life-long hobbies.
