Local children need mentors
January 20, 2023 - January is National Mentoring month, and Pinellas County Schools (PCS) seeks people willing to help guide hundreds of local students on a waiting list. According to a district release, PCS has just 2,500 mentors for nearly 3,500 mentees. That discrepancy leads to some mentors meeting with two or three children a week. The release states that PCS needs male mentors the most. For more information, visit the website here.
