This is a ppt created by Michael E. Woolley, Ph.D. University of Chicago School of Social Service Administratio In this ppt, * Research consistently shows that a student’s attitudes and beliefs about school predict better behavior and academic performance " * When student report more supportive adults—at home, in their neighborhood , and at school—they have higher levels of positive attitudes and behaviors about school. *The presence of supportive adults reduces the impact of environmental risk factors. * When student reported levels of risk factors and supportive adults are taken into account, race/ethnicity differences disappear, and family SES differences reduce. How can leaders of volunteer-based tutor/mentor programs use this information to build funding support for volunteer-based tutor/mentor programs operating in non-school hours and at schools or community based organizations?
