Why Mentor High School Students?

Data shows that most highly successful adults have had four to five mentors in their professional life. On the job and in their community organizations, mentors play important roles in the lives of their mentees. Whether it’s career advice, personal concerns, or navigating organizational landscaping – a good mentor can help pave the way for long-term success.

High school is the perfect time to help students:

• understand the benefits of mentoring

• learn how to develop and maintain a mentoring relationship, and

• recognize the difference between mentors, friends, and associates.
