The Watauga Leaders program in the Watauga County School System in North Carolina, is a program catered to those children in grades 5 through 8.  With adult chaperones, high school students worked as tutors and mentors to the children who stayed in the care of after-school.  Many activities took place such as swimming (seen above), roller skating, drug prevention education (where local sheriffs brought a drug dog to "sniff out" a target), arts and crafts, and visiting the nursing home once a month.  This is a beneficial program to all who participated.
