Brookhurst Junior High School- High School Prep Club
Position: Prep Club Mentor, Discussion Leader
2023————Present
Inspired by my own experiences in middle school and the challenges I faced in preparing for high school, I recognized a similar need among students at the junior high school adjacent to my high school. Noticing the lack of access to counselors and resources, I collaborated with a group of friends to establish a high school prep club at Brookhurst Junior High. Every Friday afternoon, we dedicate two hours to teach small groups of 10-15 students about various aspects of high school life. Our sessions cover important topics such as building friendships, navigating standardized and AP testing, mastering time management, and prioritizing mental health. Through this initiative, we aim to empower these students with the knowledge and skills necessary for a successful transition to high school.
