Sponsorship Program on August 25 and 26:
Hello families of rising seniors!
As you may have heard, we are starting a new sponsorship program for next year,
aimed to develop seniors as leaders in our school, foster vertical, multi-grade
community, and allow them to serve the in-coming freshmen by means of mentoring,
discipling, and welcoming them into the fold.
Here is our Sponsorship mission statement for reference:
“Our mission is to pair all senior students with incoming freshmen to create a supportive
and faith-centered transition into high school. Through mentorship, prayer, service, and
shared experiences, seniors will help the freshmen to navigate academic, social, and
spiritual challenges while deepening the seniors’ own leadership and discipleship, all in
the service of the common good.”
We require all seniors to attend a training seminar on Monday, August 25 at St.
Ambrose Academy from 11:00 AM until 2:30 PM. There, our seniors will learn the
goals of mentoring, choose sponsorship topics for the school year, and prepare for
meeting their mentee on Tuesday, August 26th for New Student Orientation Day
from 8:00 AM until 1:00 PM. It will be fun; our seniors are pros when it comes to
studying, socializing, and guiding younger students. Please ensure your senior attends
both days to gain preparedness for the upcoming school year.
If you have any questions, please email Mr. Roser or Mr. Kwas. Thank you for all you
do, and God bless!
