Wond'ry Mentors are Nashville-area professionals who volunteer to meet students for one-on-one personalized guidance in their areas of expertise.  By encouraging the pursuit of meaningful connections, Mentors provide opportunities for learning outside the classroom and support for independent entrepreneurial and creative endeavors.
