This summer, nine members of the Spanish Honor Society at Bishop Feehan High School volunteered four days a week at the English Language Learners (ELL)/Amigos summer camp in Attleboro.  They worked as counselors and mentors to the more than 100 ELL children who attended the camp each Monday.  

In addition to reading children's books, organizing crafts and songs and leading the students through pronunciation exercises, the volunteers in the kindergarten classroom were teacher's aides; helping to teach the students the alphabet and important classroom rules.  

This program was an offshoot of Feehan's successful "Amigos" program that has been sending more than 50 mentors to Wamsutta and Brennan middle schools in Attleboro twice a week for the past 15 years.
