About the program

The Bard Peer Mentoring Program is a year-long mentoring program at BHSECQ that pairs 9th and 10th grade students with students in the college program.

The goal of our Mentoring Program is to provide high school students with guidance, support and friendship that will help them succeed academically, socially and emotionally.

Peer Mentors, who are current students in the college program, will meet regularly with their mentees, providing them with the resources and tools to successfully navigate BHSECQ.
