Pictured above are 12 of the 27 Kids Hope USA mentors that are part of the Kids Hope Mentoring Program at Triton Elementary School.

The Kids Hope USA mission is to invest in one child, for one hour per week. Mentors will invest in their mentees lives with the hopes of giving a child one additional resource in life, help them with academic tasks, and be a positive role model and friend by giving the mentees a positive experience.

Pictured from left are Dave Gould, Lisa Weissert, Jeremy Weissert, Heather Weissert, Nancy Nordman, Kathy White, Donna Feldman, Dawn Hepler, Linda LaChance, Denise Shafer, Christen Ritchison and Janet Trowbridge.

Mentors not pictured are Amy Middaugh, Barb Goley, Kathy Monesmith, Sandy Walter, Kim Waggoner, Holly Sellers, Laura Baker, Linda Flenar, Diane Walter, Megan Chickering, Wendy Ickes, Jennie McAndrews, Heather Weissert and Mikayla Harker.

The Triton staff has been with the relationships that are being built. Students are excited to see their mentor each week and we are finding this to be an outstandingly positive experience for all involved.
