Opportunities to Serve and Resources

Aledo ISD and Parker County have numerous opportunities to serve the school district and the youth and families of the community. Find opportunities to get involved here.

Connections Mentoring Program

The Connections Mentoring Program of Aledo ISD helps to empower youth in our community to make positive life choices that enable them to maximize their potential. The mentoring program uses adult volunteers to commit to supporting, guiding, and being a friend to a young person for a period of at least one year. By becoming part of the social network of adults and community members who care about the youth, the mentor can help youth develop and reach positive academic, career, and personal goals.

For more information, email Scott Kessel at skessel@aledoisd.org or visit aledoisd.org/page/4142.
