Aida and Mary at Fairmount
Mentor Thanks!
Match Spotlight: Aida & Mary
Mary Devereaux is a former SFUSD elementary school teacher who currently mentors Aida Hernandez, a
4th grader at Fairmount Elementary school. Mary speaks Spanish fluently and also taught Spanish literacy
for many years at City College. Mary and Aida have enjoyed being each others mentor/mentee since the
beginning of Aida’s 3rd grade year.
Just for fun, what is your favorite animal and why?

AH: Ooh – puppies! I used to have some puppy pet stuffed animals that I loved when I was little. I think
Mary’s is a bird!
MD: Hmm…yes, I do like birds a lot, don’t I?
Did you have a mentor as a youngster?
MD: I didn’t have an official mentor, but I did have a neighbor that I guess you could say mentored me.
She was very crafty and I loved arts and crafts. She was also a lot of fun and less strict than my parents.
What led you to join the mentoring program?
MD: Vida Sanford, one of the staff with Mentoring For Success, is a family friend and she introduced me
to the idea of becoming a mentor.
AH: Ms. Kristin asked me at the beginning of last year if I wanted to do it and I was excited and I met
Mary.

Mission Promise Neighborhoods
Earlier this year the Department of Education
granted the Mission Economic Development
Agency (MEDA), the Mission Promise
Neighborhood (MPN) Grant. MPN is a city-wide
community partnership that was created to
support kids and families living, working and
attending schools in the Mission District. It
brings together schools, colleges, community
organizations and community leaders to help
“The best part was being
able to get to know the
students and help me understand who my students
really are”
kids graduate and families achieve financial
stability.

Mentor, Mission High
School
School “Spotlight”: Malcolm X
This month, we went to Malcolm X Academy to find
out about the amazing work they’re doing. We met
with the Tzu Chi Foundation, an active community
based partner that has been working with Malcolm X
Academy since 2009, with Matt Higgins, the School
Social Worker; his 5th grade mentee, Josh Simon and
Josh’s grandmother, Ms. Dorothy Simpson. They
gave us a snapshot of their long-term mentor/
mentee relationship and discussed the positive
influence Josh is receiving as a result of being
awarded our martial arts mentoring scholarship, one
of many
scholarships that
we will be offering
throughout the
year!
Going the
distance….
On Saturday, September 7th, at John O’Connell
High School, Mentoring for Success attended
the MPN launch party where we organized
interactive team building games to represent
MFS as a collaborating partner in MPN’s vision.
We LOVED watching the kids teaching the fire
fighters to jump rope and challenge them to a
fierce game of four square!
Over the next several years Mentoring For
Success will partner with MPN to build lasting
mentoring relationships to youth who attend
the MPN schools, Bryant Elementary, Cesar
Chavez Elementary, Everett Middle, and John
O’Connell High School.
Miss Dorothy has
committed a great
deal of time to
supporting the
school through
volunteerism –
she’s volunteered weekly at the school’s food pantry
for eleven (!) years, since her granddaughter started
at the school. When asked about the mentoring
program and her grandson’s participation she said
she thinks it’s a great program, and that she trusts
Matt, so she was comfortable with the mentorship.
“Everybody needs someone….. Josh loves Matt, and
since Josh has been mentored he doesn’t act up as
much.” Matt was helping Josh out in the classroom
when he was in kindergarten and officially started
mentoring him in first grade. Now Josh is in fifth
grade so they’ve spent a lot of time together. Josh
says “every year we do something more fun.”

Match Spotlight (continued from page 1)
How did you feel before the mentoring started?
AH: I was nervous and a little bit scared because I didn’t
know what to expect.
“If I was having a problem in class, my mentor
and me would go talk
and then I’d would go
back to class ready to
be good.”
Josh, 5th grade mentee,
Malcolm X Academy
MD: I was excited as well as nervous. I knew I wanted to
work with a girl and I’ve lived in Guatemala before so I
was glad that Aida, who’s family is from Guatemala, is
my mentee! I wasn’t sure if Aida liked me at first
because she was so quiet and very slow to warm up to
me. Do you remember, Aida, what your first question
was to me? “How old are you?!” (They both laugh)
AH: I forgot that part!
What activities have the two of you done
together?
Matt helps him if he’s having a hard time. “If I
was having a problem in class, we’d go talk
and then I’d go back to class ready to be
good.” Josh’s advice for new mentees is to
reach out to your mentor when you need
help, give them “high fives” when you see
them and have fun playing activities to help
“keep it going strong.”
Josh has started to talk to Matt about where
he’ll go to middle school next year. One thing
we know for sure is that “I’d like to keep in
touch with Matt after I leave
Malcolm X—he says he’ll come to
my house and visit my school when
I’m in sixth grade!”
AH: Mary and I met last year when I was
in 3rd grade. I really liked that this summer
we went to the library every week and
spent time studying and reading. Mary
also had me get exercise by running or
doing different things while we were
walking to the library.
MD: We also learned to do some typing
while at the library and I always bring
lunch for us when we meet at school.
After we eat, we’ll play with some of the puppets in here
at school or play cards.
AH: If you remember the cards!
What do you look forward to doing together this year?
AH: I really liked the arts and crafts stuff we did around
Christmas time. I also want to go to the library again with
Mary.
MD: I enjoy our lunches together and just spending time
each week with each other.
Any advice you would like to give to mentors or
mentees who have just joined the program?
AH: It can be scary at first and you may feel nervous, but
it’s fun and Mary has helped me a lot in school.
Scholarships
During Spring 2013, Matt and Josh
decided to apply for a martial arts
scholarship through MFS. They
researched neighborhood martial
arts studios and then chose two to
visit. Master Lockett from the
Bayview YMCA invited them to
come watch a class in session and
they enrolled in the program for the
summer.
Matt and Ms. Dorothy agreed that Master
Lockett is a great teacher, as well as one of his
assistants, Don – both teachers live in the
community too.
Ms. Dorothy walks with Josh over the
Hunter’s Point hill twice a week to take Josh
to karate class at the YMCA. She says she
loves watching Josh do karate, and loves
watching karate so she doesn’t mind the
steep walk to the class.
(continued on page 5)
MD: It’s been very rewarding and I have learned a lot as
well from Aida and this experience!

Mentoring & The Family Relationship
While a mentor can make a big difference, parents
and family caregivers are the most influential
adults in a child's life. A best practice in mentoring
is to engage parents and caregivers with the
recognition that their involvement is one of the
most important contributors to the child’s success
in school. When families are involved, students
are more likely to:
earn high grade-point averages and scores on
standardized tests or rating scales
pass more classes and earn more credits
attend school regularly
display positive attitudes about school
have higher graduation rates
refrain from destructive activities such as
alcohol and drug use and violence
“Going to my mentoring
group was the funnest
part of my week, every
week”
Project Arrive Group
Mentee, Mission High
School
Here are some important Do’s and Don’ts to help
Mentors build a relationship with their Mentee’s
families:
DO remember that your job is to be a friend to the
mentee, not her parents, siblings, or other family
members.
(continued from page 3) School Spotlight
“In the future I’d like to go to karate with Matt so
he’ll be in class too.” Matt laughs and says maybe if
the Master lets him.
Nurturing Community
Tzu Chi Foundation is an active community based
partner that has been working with Malcolm X
Academy since 2009. The Foundation brings volunteers into the school to build the school’s capacity.
They started small by offering math tutoring for a
couple of students and a Friday lunch for the staff,
but since that first year the program has grown exponentially.
DO share positive achievements of your mentee
with parents.
DO keep the caregiver informed about upcoming
activities, special meetings, and schedule changes.
DO support the parent by following their stated
rules and being respectful of their opinions and
beliefs.
DO let your mentee know that you will keep
information she shares with you in confidence
unless it affects her health or welfare.
DON’T get overly involved with the mentee’s
family. Your primary relationship is with the
mentee.
DON’T try to become the family social worker,
babysitter, counselor, or savior. If the family is
struggling, notify your program staff and ask them
to arrange for assistance.
DON’T talk with the parent about problems or
concerns while the child is present. Try to set up
boundaries with the parent so that these
conversations can occur in private.

Incorporating Academic Achievement Into
Mentoring Programs and Relationships 2005

While Tzu Chi continues providing math tutoring
and Friday lunch to staff, they now have volunteers
from the Peninsula and University of San Francisco
to offer support through their “Happy Campus”
program. One of the many important components
to this program is that the foundation recruits volunteers to mentor students and then Matt trains
and supports them in their mentorship.
This partnership between Mentoring For Success
and Tzu Chi has helps the Malcolm X community
build strong relationships with children and their
families. According to Roxanne Buchwitz of Tzu Chi
(pictured with Matt Higgins above), the familiarity
developed through the mentorship builds trust that
extends to the whole family, enabling Tzu Chi to
extend additional assistance when the need
