Young people who experience developmental relationships with adults do better in school, have stronger social emotional skills and participate in less risk behaviors. Why leave something this critical to chance? Attend "Getting Relationships Right." bit.ly/2NoIVRc

Let’s stop telling students we are preparing them for the real world. This is their real world. Each day. Every minute. Many of our students have experienced more ‘life’ in their few years than the adults they engage with on a daily basis.

We believe this too, Mr. Rhymer!

Thank you Greenville County Schools for having us today! We ❤️ our middle schools.

Mentoring is a great way to support students’ social & emotional well being! Who doesn’t need one more encouraging person in their life?

Be cool to people even if they're not cool to you, because somebody was probably not cool to them.

Interested in being a mentor at WHHS? We are partnering with Mentor Upstate to train adults to serve in this way. Sign up to attend the training on 1/17 from 12:30-1:30pm. tinyurl.com/y83kqwzm

Attack Today with Enthusiasm - If you want an exciting life, get excited about life. Don’t just go through the motions. It doesn't have to be like that. Remember your WHY today. We don't get burned out because of what we do. We get burned out because we forget why we do it.
