Mentoring

“I absolutely love my mentor and it’s such a comfort knowing that I have someone I can talk to and look to as my guide throughout the ups and downs of high school.”

“When students know that they are seen, when they know that they have an ally, an advocate, a sound font of advice on school grounds, the culture transforms.”

“I think the mentoring program is so special, and I have been so grateful for it. I have been able to grow a relationship of trust with my mentor, and I feel like I can talk to her about everything and always count on her advice.”

“All of the teachers and staff at Oakcrest truly care and are invested in each of their mentees and it is so great to gain their wisdom and reset for the month. It is also a great way to get comfortable with talking to adults and teachers so that you can ask others when the time comes.”

“I love how wise the teachers are and I especially love the mentoring program. I don’t know where I would be without my mentor.”

“What makes mentoring here so unique is how deeply each mentor invests in her mentee, not just as a student, but as a whole person. She takes the time to really know her: her strengths, her struggles, her friendships, her family and the person she is becoming. The goal is to support her and help her grow in virtue in every part of her life—as a daughter, a sister, a friend, and a student. And what makes the program so meaningful is that you can actually see the impact. You see it in the girls—in their confidence, their character, and in the way they grow into the young women they are meant to be.”
