A Check-In with your Mentor

While you will be meeting 4 times this year with your mentor, the partnership can be helpful on a number of levels.  You will obviously have a chance to reflect on your academic progress and set short and long terms goals with this adult.  In addition, it provides an opportunity for you to maintain a professional relationship with an adult in the community.  Today I am going to ask you to write an email to your mentor.  You want this email to be well written so that it is a positive reflection of you as a young adult.  Below are the requirements I would like you to consider as you complete this.

1. You must BCC (Blind Copy) Mr. Rubin at crubin@seq.org when you send the email.
2. You must follow the format below
3. You must take a screen shot in SchoolLoop of your current grades using the snipping tool
4. You must double check your document for spelling/grammar errors.
