Calf Pen is fortunate to have a High School Mentor Program. All of our 
mentors participate in extensive training by Bridges and school social 
workers.  Mentors are assigned a mentee by myself and volunteer an 
hour a week at the end their school day.  Mentors help students with 
schoolwork, act as a "big brother or sister", teach game skills, and 
encourage their mentees to do their best.  Some of our mentor-mentee 
matches are in their third year.  We appreciate the time and energy 
these young people bring to the students they see faithfully every week.

This school year I began our own Peer Buddy program.  Students in 
grade 4 & 5 were recommended by their teachers to be role models for 
younger students.  These Buddies meet with their younger buddy on 
Friday afternoons in the Media Center under my supervision.  They 
received training and ongoing support as they make a difference every 
week in the lives of their buddies,

Calf Pen has over 20 matches which involves the cooperation of our 
teachers and staff.  They have been so incredibly supportive of these 
programs.  A special thanks goes to Miss Petrus, who lets us invade the 
Media Center whenever we need space!
