About FIRE Crew
Established 2005
FIRE ( Foothill Reinforcement, Intervention and Enrichment ) promotes a safe-school environment and an atmosphere of peer support as we recruit junior and senior students to participate as student mentors during the FIRE advisory period. These "FIRE Crew" leaders receive training in organizational strategies, leadership skills and peer interaction.
FIRE Crew leaders run "New Student Orientation" before school begins; a combination of large group assembly, small group bonding activities and a school tour ( based on the Link Crew model ).
From training and orientation responsibilities to donating half of their lunch time each week, FIRE Crew leaders earn an estimated 70-80 community service hours each year.
