As students settle into their first week at school, Temple Independent School District is asking local men (and women) to support them by joining the Wildcat Mentor program.
The Wildcat Mentor program matches students with local community members to give the students an extra adult in their lives to talk to and spend time with. Boys are matched with adult men and girls are matched with women. Right now, the program still needs 16 men and seven women to sign up.
Robert Magana began volunteering as a mentor last school year. He met with sixth grader Sylvester Bean at lunch to talk about life and the lessons he learned from his own youth.
