Motivational Mentorship

What is Motivational Mentorship?

Motivational Mentorship is a student resource program. It aims to instill in all students a better sense of purpose while using the skills learned in the program in their everyday life. We do this by maintaining a safe space for students to collaborate and build a sense of community while offering an SEL-based curriculum.

Lessons are offered every Monday, Wednesday,  and Friday that focus on everything from life skills, such as budgeting, to learning how to self-regulate emotions. We also encourage team building through small and large group activities and discussions. In an effort to increase cultural and social awareness, we incorporate immersive learning byway of field trips once a month.

How can students join the program?

Students can join the program by visiting Room 2315J in the Student Resource Center at any time. Students can also be referred to the program by parents, teachers, or counselors via this referral form.

Special Programming

In addition to  weekly lessons, Motivational Mentorship aims to provide special programming through after-school workshops. These workshops will include guest speakers from different social, ethnic, and professional backgrounds that can help give students more insight into what their futures could possibly be. We will also have workshops centered around the development of self through healing circles. Below, are a list of some of the themes/topics that our workshops cover:

• Professional Development
• We’re More Alike than We Are Different
• Turning Trauma into Triumph
