Passamai Court volunteer tutors and counsels about 30 students

Sammy, a volunteer at Passamai Court, said they work with about 30 students, providing tutoring and counseling for behavioral and attendance issues and helping students set goals. "My name's Sammy. I serve at the Passamai Court. So my service involves helping students with tutoring. It also involves, like, counseling them if they have, for example, any behavioral issues, attendance issues, and in general counseling for them, And like goal setting. I take on about approximately 30 students," Sammy said.

The volunteer described the program as a two-way benefit: students can "explore what their interests or motivations might be," and volunteers gain perspective by interacting with young people from different backgrounds. "So it's a perfect opportunity for them to explore what their interests or motivations might be. And while they're doing it, they're also giving back to the community. So it's a win win," Sammy said.

The remarks were delivered as a personal account of hands-on work; no formal action, funding request, or policy change was proposed in the comments. The account highlights the role volunteers play in academic support and informal counseling at Passamai Court and emphasizes volunteers' exposure to diverse life experiences.

The session did not include details about program funding, staff supervision, eligibility criteria for students, or measurable outcomes; those elements were not specified in the remarks.
