SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. - Twenty South Tahoe High School students who served as mentors in the inaugural Connect, Engage, Succeed program this school year were awarded $12,500 in scholarships from the Lake Tahoe Educational Foundation (LTEF).
LTEF partnered with the Lake Tahoe Community College (LTCC) and Lake Tahoe Unified School District (LTUSD) to identify and train volunteer high school coaches/mentors and match them with elementary and middle school students who were struggling due to the COVID-19 pandemic distance learning format.
Mentors enrolled in an online LTCC class to learn how to coach younger students and were then paired with a cohort of 2nd-8th graders. They met remotely to provide individualized tutoring and social/emotional support. Retired teachers, such as LTEF board member Bob Comlossy, volunteered to give advice to the student coaches.
