| Big Sis/Little Sis is a peer support program set
up for all incoming ninth graders that continues throughout
the four years. Each student is matched with a student
in their sister class. Each entering ninth grader will
be paired with a “Big Sis” in the eleventh
grade and these students remain paired until the “Big
Sis” graduates.
Upon entry into the eleventh grade, students will then
be paired with a “Little Sis” from the incoming
freshman class. Big sisters and little sisters meet periodically
throughout the year at designated times for the upper classmen
to provide the needed guidance and support for the younger
students. As a result of the friendships that develop through
the Big Sis/Little Sis endeavor, students form bonds, that
they treasure for many years, with
students outside of their immediate classmates. |
