MISSION STATEMENT
Welcome to the Hobbs Municipal Schools Mentoring Page. We are currently in need of new Mentors. If you feel you, or someone you know can make a difference in the life of a child please click here to see the eligibility requirements and click here to complete the application packet.
-
Hobbs Municipal Schools Mentorship Program in partnership with the Community Drug Coalition is a school based model. The central feature of the program is that mentors meet with children on school grounds during the student's lunch time.
The
purpose of the Mentorship Program is to help youth discover positive solutions in their everyday lives by establishing a
caring relationship with a mentor. Just
as important is to make adults aware of what they can contribute as mentors to
the development of our youth.
Our primary intentions are to help
children to:
- · Feel good
about themselves;
- · Recognize
their unique potential;
- · Set
reachable goals for their future; and
- · Become
peaceful and responsible citizens.
Our
secondary goals are to:
- · Provide
support to teachers and counselors;
- · Make
schools friendly places for volunteers; and
- · Involve
communities in child raising.
THINGS
WE BELIEVE IN
- The most important aspect of mentoring is the relationship in itself.
- A caring relationship with an adult outside the family can make a difference, leaving a positive imprint on a child for the rest of his/her life.
