Students Graduating to Mentors

[hallk]

I was the first graduate to come back as a mentor. This past year I mentored two teams and volunteered at a number of regionals. I have had a lot of fun and learned even more. I don't know if it would have been as positive if I didn't kinda back off from my high school. I'm still involved with my high school team but I know that sometimes my help is needed elsewhere. It is hard being a student and a mentor without sacrificing one for the other. Many other students have realized this and now only offer support via email or by volunteering at events. In the end, it doesn't matter. Regardless of your level of involvement after high school, you will always be a part of that team and they will always be a part of you.
