Freshman Mentor Program (FMP)

The Freshman Mentor Program (FMP) is a comprehensive advisory program that spans the length of freshman year and focuses on helping students create and maintain connections to campus, classmates and our community. The FMP upperclassmen mentors are “trusted guides” who help students become familiar with Stevenson’s physical layout, policies, programs, traditions and personnel, while simultaneously developing powerful relationships with each freshman.

Message to Other Schools

Thank you for showing interest in our FMP experience. Our outstanding student advisors, faculty advisors, and counselors are the reasons FMP is a success. FMP, our Freshman Mentor Program, has developed into our “Friendly Meeting Place.” FMP is more than a home room — it is a room that becomes a home for our freshmen. Designed to assist freshmen in making the transition from junior high to high school, our FMP program has proven to be so successful that it is now an integral part of the Stevenson High School experience.
