WEB Leader (Where Everybody Belongs)In my final year of middle school, I was chosen to be part of a program called WEB "Where Everybody Belongs". In this program, I helped 6th graders have a smooth transition into middle school. Our WEB group (all 8th graders) spent time with the kids during their first week of school and checked in on them throughout the year. We helped them do homework, talked to them about their transition, showed them around the campus, and led them in some fun games to help them get to know each other.

Savannah is great teacher! She can find the way to everyone using a variety of methods in her arsenal. She can hear your wishes, support and inspire you. For two years she became a friend to me and my young daughter. Our skills became much better. Besides Savannah is the great psychologist that helps my daughter to become less closed. We’re happy to be her students!
