Students and staff in the mentoring program at Dodd participated in a "Make Your Own Sundae" ice cream social event with a representative of the Mentor New York group. The event was funded by a $250 prize following school social worker and program coordinator Felice Niland's participation in a contest hosted by Mentor New York.
Dodd's mentoring program is in its 10th year and serves to connect faculty members with students in a mentor-mentee relationship. The mentors annually offer their time and leadership to students, and assist them in transitioning into middle school and making the most of their Dodd experience. There are 53 mentors and 92 mentees participating in the program this year.
