Selection Process
Though some mentors stated that they had no trouble meeting their mentees, most mentors complained that their mentees did not show up to meetings. Thus, it was agreed that it is important to select mentees who are willing to be mentored.
New process for mentees: Market YLMP to Kinbu students and inform them that there is limited space for mentees. Making the program competitive will require selected mentees to be serious with the program.
Open selection process – we will accept applications from all students who are interested in being mentees. Selection to be a mentee will be based on the student’s performance on a 100 word (or so) paper.
Meeting Times & Places
Mini seminars and mentee-mentor sessions will be held at Kinbu on Friday afternoons.
YLMP will be a club so we can meet on Fridays when all other school clubs meet. This ensures that YLMP will not have to compete with other clubs and/or Friday entertainment.
Programmes
Who Moved my Cheese was too heavy for the mentees. Therefore, one of the 3 books will be used for the next programme:
Library project: we will continue with the library club and refurbishment.
Fundraising effort: We will find a way to involve the students in this effort. We will have to seek funds from corporates.
Newsletter: Copies should be ready in September. The newsletter can be used to market YLMP in other schools.
Acknowledgment for mentors
Letters of recommendation from Databank Foundation will be given to mentors upon request.
