High School Student Mentoring

Mr. Finlay in the Guidance Office is heading up gender and grade-specific mentoring opportunities for our high school students at SBA. We are blessed to have seniors who expressed a desire to mentor and pour into the classes below them. For these groups there is no curriculum or any extra homework - we only ask that the students will come with an open heart as we discuss and share biblical wisdom and insight into issues our students may face through high school. See the groups, times and locations on Mr. Finlay's counseling site by clicking here.
