The "Guys in Ties" program held their end of the year banquet on Tuesday.
This unique leadership program started with a West Ada teacher partnering 4th and 5th grade boys with male faculty members who serve as mentors.
The program is currently growing and students say it has taught them valuable lessons.
The program was started by Adam Burwell, but others have joined to help get the kids ready for this event.
The Treasure Valley Barber Company offered free haircuts and Southern Proper provided ties to the kids.
