Mentors

University School students serve as mentors for kindergarteners at Hibben Preschool
Learning takes place in many ways. At University School, our mentors serve a valuable role in the life of our students and their families. Although many are graduates of University School, they are all nurturing, achievement-oriented, and positive role models. This group of young adults (high school and college students) comprise another layer of our community of curious learners, and they reinforce and demonstrate the ideals that are exemplified at University School. They participate in the life of our students at school and at evening and weekend events, and they serve as a resource for students and families interested in their respective schools, colleges, career fields.
