Summary
As a program mentor I demonstrate a high level of commitment to student success as evident in goal setting student outcomes, and student notes. Student success, by MSS standards, includes identifying urgent student need as displayed by LCD and Caseload tools as well as notes and documentation for each student, responding to emails, phone calls and text messages in a timely manner and overall attention to urgent student needs.
