become a mentor

The Mustangs Mentoring Program seeks adult volunteer mentors on an ongoing basis. The program pairs adults from the community with John Muir High School freshmen who struggle with poor school attendance, low academic performance, emotional distress or behavioral issues.

• A mentor must commit to meet regularly with the student for a minimum of five hours per month for at least 12 months.
• Meetings take place at a mutually convenient location.
• All mentors must go through a screening process that includes an application, intake procedures, background check and a program orientation.
• Mentors receive training and ongoing support by the mentoring agencies in the collaboration.

If you would like to make a significant contribution to the life of a young person at John Muir High School and are interested in serving as a mentor, please contact Lisa Wilson at (626) 449-0839, ext. 116.
