Sign Up To Become a TN Promise Mentor

449 mentors are still needed to support the 2020 class of TN Promise students within Rutherford County. In total, tnAchieves aims to recruit 9,000 mentors across the state to support 65,000+ students expected to apply for TN Promise this year. 
Why mentor? tnAchieves hopes to improve students’ quality of life, increase the value of education in Tennessee and create lifelong learners. The program also seeks to build a strong workforce by increasing educational attainment opportunities across the state. 

The program is also seeing statewide success! With the help of mentors and counselors, TN Promise students are outpacing their peers in both freshmen to sophomore year retention and graduation. TN Promise students retain from their freshman to sophomore year at 67% while their non-TN Promise peers retain at 58%. Help keep that momentum going by registering to become a mentor!
