Lunch Buddies is a mentorship program where high school students spend lunch and recess time with elementary school students to provide guidance, friendship, and support. The goal is to create positive relationships that help younger students feel more confident, included, and motivated in school. It can encourage social and emotional growth, reduce feelings of loneliness or exclusion, and provide a role model for younger students. It strengthens high school students' leadership and mentorship skills and encourages responsibility and empathy. This provides opportunities for volunteer hours and community service.
Please see Mrs. Gustafson to get involved.
