Big Brother Big Sister matches each Big (college student) to one elementary student (Little) from Flagg Street Elementary School. During our biweekly meetings, each Big and Little complete homework, walk around campus, play board games, basketball, and a variety of other activities to connect on a personal level with your Little. Through becoming a mentor to your Little, you not only mentor them through elementary school, but you are able to form a lifelong connection and serve as a role model in their life. COVID protocol may affect whether the biweekly meetings take place on campus or virtually.
