Bicentennial staff volunteer time for student mentor program

Forty-one Hamilton Bicentennial Elementary School teachers and aides volunteered to serve as student mentors this year. Entering its eighth year, the Bicentennial Mentor Program provides structured support to students who need help, support, and guidance. The program, which kicked off Nov. 21 with an organization breakfast meeting for all mentors, is organized by Guidance Counselor Dawn Jones. The mentors will start to meet with their assigned students the first week in December.
