I have a mentor at school and me and my freind are making him a shirt for Christmas. But we don;t know what the word for the person being mentored is called.

Actually, both mentee and mentoree are in common usage. In my work I've hear it both ways and your question sparked me to find this link which explains (near the bottom) the two formations:

P.S. 'Mentee' is shorter and so would cost less to put on a shirt! :)

You are being mentored, so you would be the mentoree. Other words for this person are apprentice, student and ward may even be used in some cases.

England 40's no children yet. Deeply into the Environment and human populaion levels are critical but I would love kids one day. I have always wanted them and I still plan on having a kid or two if I ever meet the right person.

You can use 'Grasshopper'. It was the name given to Cain by his teacher on the old series, 'Kung Fu', starring David Carradine.
(It'll look much better on a shirt than 'Mentee' or 'Mentoree' since kids are mercilous and cruel!)

Mentee. There's no such word as mentoree in the dictionary.
