By creating supportive relationships between students and volunteer mentors, Boston Partners in Education ensures a more equitable city where every BPS student is equipped with the skills, opportunity, and confidence to succeed in the classroom and beyond. 

By volunteering as an academic mentor in a Boston Public Schools classroom, you can help students build the skills and confidence to improve their academic achievement, accelerate their personal growth, and ultimately, stay in school and graduate on time. 

One hour of personal attention each week can be life-changing for students. Whether you read together or work on math problems, talk about professions and career options, or practice social skills, your time together helps prepare students for a lifetime of success.
