FBC Mentoring

The Mentoring Ministry with Schofield Middle School began as a collaborative effort between Friendship Baptist Church and South Aiken Presbyterian Church in September, 2012 to provide to Schofield students support from the community. Volunteers from both churches are trained at beginning of each school year to mentor 6th to 8th grade students who volunteer to participate in the program, with parental consent. Mentors provide their assigned student weekly with support, encouragement, and help with study habits, homework, special projects, and a listening ear when needed. Some mentors are involved with their mentees in their extra-curricular activities. Mentors are needed, as you can make a difference in a student’s life.
