Peer Mentors
This program is run in conjunction with our AVID program. Our Peer Mentors are assigned to a small group of students who are in need of academic support. Peer mentors plan activities, check-in with their mentees on a weekly basis, and help students develop critical study and time management skills. Meetings are held once a week
Club Connections
What is it all about?
Our 8th grade ASB students link up with our 6th and 7th grade students to help them transition to middle school. Our ASB students are positive role models and act as mentors to support our students. This program works on building communication skills to help develop social and emotional confidence. Our ASB students will meet with their Wildcat Cubs on a monthly basis to motivate and connect with them.
If you are interested in this program, please contact Mrs. Amaya our Academic Advisor in the front office.
