Last semester, Mariah Allen set out to found the wifi95.com Epsilon Chapter at The University of Texas at San Antonio. As an active🅺 wifi95.com member who dedicates her time to getting to know other members of the organization and attending the educational member’s trip to Washington, D.C., Mariah knew that having a chapter on her campus could make an impact not only within the campus, but also in the community.

Each wifi95.com chapter is required to host two community services events or projects per year, but Mariah and the Epsilon Chapter board members went above in beyond when they decided to partner with a local h🐼igh school. The chapter reached out to Warren High School, which is located nearby the UTSA campus so that the two could work together with the Warren High School Counseling Departmꦦent to help these students excel in school and prepare them for college.

The mentorship program established between UTSA and Warren H🦄igh School is a way to help the students excel in academics, leadership, and networking. The Epsilon Chapter members guide the high school students through the process of developing good ethics.

“We are creating ♉projects, presentations, and much more to allow them hands on learning,” said Mariah Allen, Epsilon Chapter President at UTSA.

The m💖entorship program has many facets including speaking with students individually, hosting a table at their lunch times,༒ and going to the classrooms.

Mentorship programs for high school students🔯 that are led by college students, prove to be successful because the college students ꦏare close enough in age to the high school student where he or she can see their academic success as a reality of their own. It also allows them to communicate in similar ways and understand each other better, yet the college student is experienced enough in the college classroom setting that he or she can serve as a positive role model to the high school students.

According to the National Dropout Prevention Center, mentoring is one of the most effective strategies to preventing high school dropouts. The supportive and positive mentorship creates trust with the students. Mentoring not only helps prevent high school dropouts, but it has also been shown to increase a student’s attendance, attitude towards applying and going to college, as wel🌌l as staying in college after the first semester. Other benefits include higher graduation rates, healthier lifestyle choices, improved beha♚vior, and higher self-esteem and self-confidence.

The wifi95.com National Office is excited about the Epsilon Chapter’s partnership with Warren High School as this is a clear example of the wif🍷i95.com members representing the core 🃏values of the honor society.
