BE A STUDENT MENTOR - NASSAU COUNTY BAR ASSOCIATION



Attorneys act as mentors to middle school students selected by guidance counselors, meeting with them on school premises twice monthly for 45 minutes during the school year. The one-on-one program permits mentor and student to develop a rapport, and motivates students to set and work towards positive goals. → Attorneys wishing to serve as mentors, please call NCBA at (516) 747-4070.

BE A STUDENT MENTOR


Here I am with a student I mentored this year.

One of the volunteer opportunities for Nassau County Bar Association members is to become a Student Mentor. Student Mentors provide valuable adult guidance and serve as a role model for at-risk middle school students in one-on-one sessions at a local middle school. The commitment is twice a month for less than an hour, but the rewards you receive are immeasurable. Mentors are always in demand. Contact Sheryl Palley-Engel at NCBA 516-747-4070 or SPalley-Engel@nassaubar.org

May 26, at the Nassau County Bar Association, was the annual Student Mentoring Program luncheon.

In this program, sponsored by the Bar Association, attorneys act as mentors to middle school students selected by guidance counselors, meeting with them on school premises twice monthly for 45 minutes during the school year. The one-on-one program permits mentor and student to develop a rapport, and motivates students to set and work towards positive goals.

Here is a picture of myself and my mentee at the luncheon - he honored me with a short speech thanking me for always talking about history and politics with him.
