This is an image of our mentor schedule. The setup is slightly complicated as we have had to coordinate schedules between the high school and the elementary school. However, we found a schedule that worked. We shared it with the counselor at NPE and all the high school mentors, which makes it much easier for everyone to keep track of mentor dates and times. We also send reminder emails the day before students have mentoring.

As we near the end of organization for this project, we are tying up all the loose ends and preparing for the whole semester. We still have a few problems to work out, but I can tell we are so close to the program running smoothly on its own.
First, we still need more guy mentors from the high school, but we have asked multiple people, and no one is stepping up to do it. They either have other responsibilities or just don't want to, and we don't want to force it on someone who won't care as much. Also, we have one elementary student who may not continue in the program, so we need to make other arrangements for that, and we have one more elementary student who is going to be more involved than we expected. Our next steps are to figure out how to create a meeting time for every student, so no students are left out. We want each student, especially the elementary students, to be positively impacted by this program! We have also been keeping track of a list of things that should be done next year to make this program a success sooner. Hopefully a group will be willing to take it on early in the year, and we want to provide them with as many helpful details as possible, so they can get the program running sooner than we did. Once we finish this list, Austin and I will both post it to our blogs, so the groups next year will have it as a resource. |
