Volunteer: WVES Student Buddy

Many caregivers have requested mentors for their West View students and are on waitlists for mentor matches. Having a “buddy” gives a student the opportunity to connect one-on-one with a positive, supportive adult role model.

Buddies come to the school once a week to visit with a student, usually during lunch/recess time. Chat with them during lunch, read a book with them, play a game, or do an activity together.
