Mission Statement
The Vine, Spring ISD’s Mentoring Program, will give students a caring adult mentor in their lives committed to guiding, teaching, coaching, listening, modeling, advocating, and cheering for their success at least once a week for thirty minutes to one hour through building a trusting relationship.
What is "The Vine" Mentoring Program?
“The Vine is the source of life for the branches. It provides the water and nutrients by which fruit are produced.”
The Vine Mentoring Program is designed to introduce our students to a source of encouragement, support, empowerment, and guidance. Every Vine mentor will be the source of support our students need to help them realize and fulfill their potential. As a result, our Spring ISD branches (students) will become fruitful staples within the communities they serve and be ready to contribute, compete, and lead in today’s global society.
The Vine Mentoring Program, provides students a positive relationship with a caring adult while helping to advance their leadership and communication skills, community service responsibility, providing social and emotional supports, and increasing college and career opportunities.
