Would you be willing to serve as an academic mentor for a highly able student who needs the expertise of a trained adult? Mentorships may provide a student with an opportunity to independently research a topic in depth, or to explore and experiment within an academic area of passionate interest. Mentors are needed in math, the visual and performing arts, science, social studies, technology, and writing. We would work with the student’s classroom teachers to find a time each week for you and the student to meet.
If you are interested in serving as a mentor, please email Kerry Berns, MMSD TAG resource teacher, at kberns@madison.k12.wi.us.
