Ripley Middle School

All LCS Employees & Community Supporters:

Last year, 19 employees of Lauderdale County Schools signed up through TNAchieves to serve as mentors for TN Promise.  At this point, 6 LCS employees have completed the application to mentor in 2022.  This is a community effort and the county needs a total of 43.  Only 9 community members outside of the schools have signed up, as of last count, for a total of only 15 mentors of the 43 needed.  Please help the community and our students by signing up to serve as a TNAchieves/TNPromise mentor.  Returning and new mentors can access the application at  www.tnachieves.org/mentors/apply.

3,600 volunteer mentors are needed by 12/3 to support TN Promise applicants across the state for 2022! Mentors spend just one hour per month supporting students as they transition from high school through their first semester of college. Many TN Promise students will be the first person in their family to go to college, and need a little extra encouragement!

Mentoring can be done either virtually or in person depending on your preference. All mentors complete a one hour training and receive a handbook guide to the program. Will you consider applying as a mentor in 2022? The deadline to register is Friday, December 3.  Click here to complete a mentor application: https://tnachieves.org/mentors/apply

Thank you for your consideration!
