YPIE Scholars are paired with an adult Graduation Coach to provide mentoring beginning in 9th grade and following students through to high school graduation.

Here are the highlights of the commitment:

  • Coaches commit to mentoring their Scholars for four years (grades 9-12)
  • Typically, each Coach takes on 2 Scholars
  • Coaches meet with their Scholars every other week for 40 mins (approximately 10-16 meetings per school year) during the Scholars’ lunch periods at their high schools
  • The day of the week is consistent and is scheduled around the coach’s availability
  • Sessions will begin in January 2017

Graduation Coach Training will commence on Wednesday, November 16. To learn more about the program, attend an information session at the Yonkers Riverfront Library on September 13 at 12:00 PM (Tuesday), September 29 at 5:00 PM (Thursday), or October 19 at 9:00 AM (Wednesday). RSVP here.
