Jeff Talbert started mentoring his student, Jedan, when he was in sixth grade at Bettye Myers Middle School two years ago.
Jeff is a great mentor and has a wonderful attitude, and he has a wonderful bond with Jedan. Jedan is so excited each time Jeff comes to see him. He also expressed to Jeff that he wanted him to continue with him in high school. Jedan looks up to Jeff and found a great male role model in him. It is a joy to see them interact with one another.
Aside from being a great mentor, Jeff also built a bookcase for the Communities In Schools office when he saw the one in my old office was falling apart. Thank you, Jeff, for all you do for CIS and for Jedan!
