Getting Ready to ASPIRE for Middle School Students
Volunteer to mentor high school students in your community.
What is Getting Ready to ASPIRE?
A group mentoring pilot project that introduces planning for training and education
beyond high school to middle school students and their families.
The program is structured so that the curriculum fits within the site’s schedule
in a way that best suits its existing program. Screened and trained volunteers and
site staff will deliver the components of the program to classes or assemblies on
a monthly basis. Site staff will be present at all times. The curriculum includes
career exploration; college financial planning; high school graduation requirements
and course rigor; and the importance of extracurricular and community activities.
Each training component is freestanding to make the delivery schedule more flexible.
