This picture struck me as I passed through our media center:
This is Mr. Piehl, on of our Communities in School volunteer mentors. He is a faithful supporter of the program and his mentee.
This is very profound! On the surface, its two people mulling over some basic moves [trying to remember how the knight moves] but we all know this a huge difference maker for students!
Communities in School is a great program that provides structure to our volunteer mentors. We are fortunate that our CIS Rep, Mr DeChamps has been recognized for his efforts. We have to remember that with or without programs like this, mentoring/supporting kids is crucial. Its not all about new innovations in teaching and learning, we have to take care of the total child.
