    KUBE is a one-on-one mentoring program with middle school students from the Killingly and Windham middle schools. The aim of the program is to create a multicultural mentoring program that builds literacy, educational aspirations, and social skills development. We meet one Saturday a month from about 11-4pm and engage in various activities that help promote these skills in the students.
