THERE'S A NEW APPROACH TO MENTORING COMING THIS FALL TO TWO ALBUQUERQUE CHARTER SCHOOLS. BIG BROTHERS AND BIG SISTERS OF CENTRAL NEW MEXICO WILL BE PAIRING-UP A VOLUNTEER WITH EACH INCOMING FRESHMEN AT AMY BEAHL AND SOUTH VALLEY ACADEMY. SHARON TENORIO WITH BIG BROTHERS TELLS US THIS WILL ALLOW THEM TO KEEP A BETTER EYE ON HOW STUDENTS ARE PROGRESSING. TENORIO SAYS THEY STILL HAVE A NEED FOR ABOUT 20 TO 25 MORE MEN TO VOLUNTEER FOR THE PROGRAM. THEY'LL BEGIN MATCHING MENTORS WITH STUDENTS IN LATE AUGUST.
