Program Summary Roseland Prep

l

Sarah Tendall and Jill Anderson above shared the formula they have followed to achieve an outstanding 90% graduation rate versus a 46% statewide average.  Roseland Preparatory has developed a strong community partnership with supportive adults who mentor junior year students through their first year of college,university or certificate program.

Mentors agree to volunteer at least twice monthly for three years, coaching, encouraging, tutoring students through the process of applying for their post high school education.  

Mentors spend time providing a listening ear, encouragement and in general confidence building as much as any academic support.  Students benefit from one-to-one time over a cup of coffee as much as applying for a scholarship or reviewing an essay.  Sunrise Rotarian Nancy Aita recently completed her vetting as a Mentor.  Ask her what convinced her to commit her valuable time to such a lives changing relationship.
