Buckeye Chapter of College Mentors for Kids Debuts
Ohio State business student Bryant Pottmeyer has always been the type to put ideas into action. This time, the idea was to begin a Buckeye chapter of the noted College Mentors for Kids, a group mentoring organization with a unique twist. Matching 40 college students with first through fourth graders, CMFK teaches the basics of college aspiration and planning to enthusiastic youngsters. Most college access mentoring models focus on older children. This Fall, the Ohio State Chapter will be hosting elementary school students from West Franklin Elementary in the South Western School District. Each week, the kids will be on campus learning about college with creative and well-tested lessons. CMFK also focuses on financial literacy, reading skills and cultural awareness.
President E. Gordon Gee's Remarks to the College Board Forum
"We all know that a college education is the single most important factor in upward mobility. Understanding that, we must redouble our efforts to ensure that young people have two things: the financial means and the early guidance to earn a college degree."
