Every week since 1997, Roswell Kiwanians have been mentoring students at Crabapple Middle School. School counselors identify students in need of help and assist Kiwanians with effective mentoring. Students with whom Kiwanians work are weak in math skills. This is the 13th year for Mathaletes.
Kiwanis mentors: Judy Allen, Fred Levy, Ron Jackson, Jim McKelvey and Roger Lamprey. Chris Van de Griend also serves as a mentor. Current mentors include Ron Jackson, ROger Lamprey, Janet Liberman and Mark Selman.
