LEADERSHIP AT GUERIN PREP Student Council Guerin Prep’s Student Council is a group of representatives selected from each of the 26 homerooms of Guerin Prep. These students are dedicated to listening to the student body’s concerns and ideas, and then acting on the issues. Student Council is committed to some type of community service during each semester. In addition, Student Council is the group responsible for community spirit. STUDENT COUNCILOFFICERS The meetings are on every Wednesday morning at 7:30 am. The group discusses over events that are coming up. The officers talk to the members of the student council and ask them their ideas on how to help the school community.

Freshman Advisory Mentors The Mentors meet in the Freshmen Advisories two or three times a month during the first semester and one to two times a month during second semester. Meetings are always on Wednesdays. Generally the activities are chose by the Mentor Teams and are designed to help the freshmen make a smooth transition into and through freshmen year i.e. icebreakers, tours, getting to "know" GCP, its history, people, and physical plant. Additionally all Advisories take a Learning Styles Inventory and are introduced to the concept of left brain/right brain learning, study skills and test taking skills are taught reviewed especially around quarterly and semester exams. Lead Tutors LEAD is a peer tutoring program in which students are trained as tutors to assist their peers under the supervision of faculty members. During their training, students are given a handbook and receive specific techniques and guidelines for successful tutoring. At the end of the training, tutors sign a code of ethics from the National Tutoring Association. The program allows tutors to share what they have learned about successful study habits, completing homework, writing thesis statements and doing projects. Tutors are required to be available for tutoring in the Welch Center twice a week and receive 1/4 credit per year for their service. Faculty members may request a referral to the LEAD program. |
