Cambridge TeamMates celebrated back to school with a Kick Off Picnic on Monday, August 16, where everyone played games, had some great food, and enjoyed meeting with their mentor/mentee again to make plans for the year. We are excited to again be able to meet in person with our students and provide a caring adult friend. If you’ve thought of becoming a mentor, there are no special skills required other than caring about a kid. The goal of TeamMates is to meet 24 times per year with your student for lunch, a quick game or cards, a craft, or just some conversation. We have students waiting for a mentor to volunteer and you can apply online at www.teammates.org

New teachers joining the Cambridge Trojan staff are Austin Heikkinen, Rhiley Fiene and Marlana Kent. Austin Heikkinen was born and raised in Hastings.
