Volunteer Program, Sou. Pines Middle School

Dear Friends,

Would you like to help a young person find direction in life? A new mentoring program will be starting soon at Southern Middle School designed to do just that. Students and mentors will receive training in Stephen Covey’s Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. This will allow mentors to help students utilize principles that will direct their lives. The initial training for mentors is scheduled for Thursday, November 29, 8:30 AM-4:30 PM at Southern.

The additional 16 hours of Seven Habits training will be scheduled at the volunteers’ convenience. Mentors are also invited to sit in on the student training on November 30, 8:15 AM-2:45PM. Even if mentors can only stop by for a few minutes, we would appreciate the support. If you are not available for the training on the 29th of November, I will be able to arrange alternate training times.

We are recruiting thirty adult mentors to meet weekly with thirty six graders at Southern. These students have been identified by the teachers and counselors as youngsters who can benefit from quality time spent with a caring adult.

Sincerely,

Robin Moore at 947-2086
