Sacramento Schools are making it easier for their students to succeed by creating the Navigators Mentor Program in their schools. This program enhances the resiliency of students and helps them develop valuable assets needed to be successful adults by providing them with mentors who encourage and empower students to thrive academically, socially, and emotionally as they navigate through their turbulent middle school years.
How do Mentors in Sacramento Schools Help Students?
The mentors involved in the Navigators Mentor Program in Sacramento Schools are dedicated in providing the following:
Mentors in Sacramento Schools are positive role models and examples for young students. By seeing and talking to someone engaged in life and sharing a positive outlook the mentor may be demonstrating an attitude that the child has not seen carried out in a person before.
Mentors are spending time with individual students, or even a group of students and helping to guide them through programmed activities that encourage success. The bottom line of successful mentoring is the sharing of experiences as a guide to help young students to navigate through challenges both now and in the future.
Mentors also help students to bond with their school and their community by encouraging participation in school and community events.
Perhaps most importantly, mentors in Sacramento Schools help to assist their student through what is likely the most challenging and confusing years of life. The transition from Middle School to High School is very difficult and intimidating for most students. Mentors are there to help make the transition as smooth as possible and to provide emotional and academic support for the child they mentor.
What Does it Take to be a Mentor in Sacramento Schools?
If you are willing to spend one hour, once a week for an entire school year with a student, then this is a perfect opportunity for you! You also have to show a distinct willingness to be a positive role model and support your student to achieve at the highest levels. As a mentor in Sacramento Schools, you are essentially helping a child navigate through a turbulent part of their life by helping transition them from childhood to pre-adulthood.
During your weekly visit to Sacramento Schools you're helping your "mentee" to plan community projects and summer activities with other community groups and members of the Navigators Mentor Program. Projects are planned and completed each quarter. As you work with students on this project you're not only being a good role model, but you're also aiding Sacramento Schools to help develop a child and encourage them to achieve their maximum potential.
Overall, this Navigators Mentor Program in Sacramento Schools is a great way in developing a child into becoming an active part of the community as well as helping to transition them from childhood to pre-adulthood. Giving them responsibility in the community teaches them about philanthropy and self-worth, which will indeed make them valuable assets in their future communities. Go encourage this program in Sacramento Schools by signing up to be a mentor today!
