Make a difference for a local 5th grader this year by joining the NMC and Blair Elementary mentor partnership.

The Blair mentorship program was started by Kari Kahler two years ago. The program pairs each 5th-grader at Blair Elementary with an NMC student to serve as their mentor. NMC students meet with a Blair student for an hour once per week, providing them with undivided attention from an adult role model. The goal is to introduce the benefits of higher education to the next generation of learners and present options for their future.

NMC students benefit by earning service learning hours which are included on their transcript. Students interested in participating will need to commit 1-2 hours per week from mid-October through the end of April.
