Each year, Mentor Match Day brings excitement to the North Ed Career Tech Engineering Academy as juniors are paired with professionals from the local design, engineering and business community.
This mentorship program helps students form meaningful connections with industry professionals while developing key communication and workplace skills. Mentors are thoughtfully matched with students based on career goals, hobbies and shared interests. Recently, we hosted a breakfast for the junior class, where 31 students were matched with their mentors.
Every junior in the Engineering Academy participates in the program, which continues through their senior year. Mentorship activities are integrated into English classes, and students meet with their mentors once a month. The program is overseen by dedicated staff who coordinate the annual Mentor Breakfast, manage volunteer forms and prepare mentor journals at the end of the year.
We are deeply grateful to all our volunteer mentors, whose guidance and commitment often play a pivotal role in shaping the students’ future paths. Thank you for making a lasting impact on the next generation of engineers and innovators.
