4. ACE Mentor Program

The goal is to create connections between students and professionals and enable the students to understand what the ACE industry is all About. For more information go here or contact Gwen Whiting, CTE coordinator, at [email protected]
5. Newcomer Peer Success Program
Our Newcomer Peer Success Program is open to those students who would like to assist our multi-language learners to be successful. The student will receive elective credit and must commit to one class period a semester. This assistance will require attending a class with the student and will be anything from being a friend to assisting with assignments. Interested students must fill out an application to participate.
The ideal peer tutor should show responsible behavior, competence in core subjects, and a friendly demeanor. Other language experience is a plus, but not required. This is a great learning and leadership opportunity for our students. Upon application review, Mrs. Hoopes and Mrs Adams will follow up with the applicant.
Our multi-language learners, who need additional support, qualify for this program. Students will be selected by teachers. Once chosen, they will be paired with peer tutors for as many classes as possible. The focus will be on the core subjects. The partnership will last at least one semester.
