[LM_NET] HS-Target: Freshmen/At-Risk Mentoring Program

[Sherry Fairchild <Fairchilds@LAWSON.K12.MO.US>]

Our district would like to develop a mentoring program for students (specifically 
Freshmen) who are at-risk.  They would like our upper level students to act as the 
mentors, under administrator's guidance.  We have an A+ mentoring program, but need 
a separate program for Freshmen students who, without additional guidance, may 
struggle and become potential drop-outs.  If your school has a program similar to 
this, I would really appreciate any information you could provide.  My husband has 
been given the opportunity to develop this program, but other than the information 
above, the administration is not sure what other criteria to recommend (they just 
know we need a program like this).  Many thanks in advance!
