Our peer helping program would not function without the dedication of our peer helpers, the leadership of Mrs. Doyle-Hogan, and the standards set forth by the legendary Mr. Kelly .

    Peer helping is based on the fact that students most often seek out other students when they are experiencing some worry, frustration, or concern.  Students want to help each other, yet they do not know how or what to do.  Peer helpers are trained to provide:
        *listening and understanding
        *friendship and support
        *decision making assistance
        *tutoring and academic help
        *role modeling for younger students
        *problem solving assistance, and
        *referral to professionals

 

    Our peer helpers for this year are a very motivated bunch of students who take the time and responsibility to help others.
