'It makes me feel really good because I feel like I need to help somebody and it makes me really happy,' said 5th grader Hermione Luce.
MARANA, Ariz. — For more than 15 years, Twin Peaks K through 8 School has been creating a more caring school community by bridging the gap between older and younger students.
She’s been a part of the buddy program since kindergarten. She said meeting people for the first time made her nervous, but those feelings would quickly subside. Twin Peaks principal Dondi Luce said it's a great opportunity for students in all grade levels."Our older students can take on a mentoring role and can really help our younger students," Luce said.
Students in the program meet several times each semester to engage in fun activities while making new friends.
