Peer Mentor

I got a letter home yesterday that the girls school is creating a peer mentor program and Mikayla has been one of 5 kids who's been recommended to be part of it. What it involves is that on Fridays she will go to the special needs classroom and work with the handicapped and special needs kids. The peer mentors will read to them, do speech exercises, and just play with them and be their friends. What an amazing opportunity for her!!!! She's really excited about it and she hopes that she starts today (although I'm guessing it won't be til next Friday). Man, this little girl must have something special. The gifted program, the news team, Odessey of the Mind and now Peer Mentors. Maybe I have a future Student Council President on my hands!!!! Maybe she'll be the first women president....that's just hoping Hillary isn't. ;)
