Staff Writer Hubbard’s mentorship program has been a success for the past several years. This year was no exception with over 20 mentors helping the freshmen class. Being a Senior Mentor helps you get out of your comfort zone to strengthen and enhance your leadership skills. It’s a great experience where you learn what it feels like to be a “teacher” without the hard work and restrictions, because you are not just their “teacher” but the big brother or sister away from home who they could depend on to show them the ropes of high school. So if you just want to try something new or love helping people, this is the activity for you. Mrs. Breslin and Mrs. Brown are in charge of it; if you are interested you can contact them. Meetings are being held in Room 120 on Fridays. To make sure that this program stays at Hubbard, we need LEADERS LIKE YOU! Here is what a couple of students had to say about the Senior Mentors program: Alma Correa (Div. 303) I enjoyed going to see my freshmen, even if they were low in energy. Easiest part was obviously going to the division. The hardest part was actually getting them to do what I asked them to do. Yes, I do remember my mentor (said smiling)! I do recommend it for seniors who are up for the challenge because it has to be something you really want to do. Diane Guillen (Div. 601) It helps them out by going to classes just important fact and trait to have since it helps them out. We get to talk to the seniors and they could help us and tell us the best thing to do. When I first came to high school I didn’t know where my classes were just asking someone that’s been here longer was helpful. It help my grades because I don’t like being tardy, so it’s a good thing I got there on time and I knew what to do. Since, I want to graduate from high school and be a good role model. Yes I want to be a senior mentor because I’ll be able to help out freshmen and it’s a good leadership program. I recommend it I think is a good thing. The mentors get to help freshmen and spread the word easily about what’s going around at school. Her last words were I had a good mentor!
