School Based Mentoring Survey
In order to enhance our School Based Mentoring program and better serve the children of Lorain County, we are gathering data in order to create a 3-5 year strategic plan for our afterschool and Lunch Buddy programs. If you are a superintendent, school district administrator or elementary school principal and are interested in being included in that plan or would like more information about our School Based Mentoring programs, please complete the survey by February 1, 2012. Once BBBS staff has collected and analyzed the survey data, we will set up in-person meetings with those interested schools in order to discuss your needs, expectations and where you might fit into our strategic plan.
