The Mentees' Perspectives

Mentors in the Communities In Schools Mentoring Program are very important people in the lives of their mentees. Here are some things that our mentees have said about their mentors:

  • "You are the nicest mentor ever. You are like a mom to me. You talk to me when I need someone to talk to."
    -- 8th grade girl, CIS Mentor Program

  • "Thanks for everything. I hope I grow up to be successful like you."
    -- 6th grade boy, CIS Mentor Program

  • "There are no words to say to describe you or what you mean to me. You are amazing. I don't know what I would do without you."
    -- 8th grade girl, CIS Mentor Program

  • "I appreciate everything you do for me. Thank you for being the best mentor ever."
    -- 8th grade boy, CIS Mentor Program

  • "At first I was just going to use this program to cut a few classes, but I'm glad I kept with this because you turned out to be a good mentor and also a good friend."
    -- 9th grade boy, CIS Mentor Program

  • "You're amazing. You've been my mentor since 6th grade. I hope I can still see you while I'm in high school. Honestly, you're my safety net. And you've always been there for me. Even when stars die, friends will never fade."
    -- 8th grade girl, CIS Mentor Program
