Trust Bridges 

This week the students at Shaw learned about trust, what makes trust, and how to build trust. While building the "Trust Bridge,"students built trust with one another. It was great to look around the classroom and hear mentees talking to their mentors about their personal life, academics, and who they trust in their family and at Shaw Heights.  Students also reflected on why they do not trust people easily and many realized it had to do with past experiences. The students were very creative with their bridges. If you ask the students what builds trust they would say:

1.) Time- they need to spend time together to get to know one another

2.) Commitment- you need to follow through with what you say

3.) Confidentiality

4.) Respect

5.) Loyalty 

6.) Communication

7.) Safety 

8.) Dedication 

9.) Support 

10.) No judgement
