Just need the best survey tools to measure self esteem and prosocial behaviors in teens involved in school-based mentoring. Any ideas greatly appreciated. I already use the Rosenberg Self-Esteem scale.

Im not sure if this will be helpful but you could try the Locus of Control Questionnaire/Test. If you google it you will find quite a bit of information about it and different versions of the questionnaire.
Below is a bit of information from the following website: http://psychologytoday.psychtests.com/tests/lc_access.html
Do you control your destiny or are you controlled by it? This test assesses your locus of control orientation and your attribution style.
"A locus of control orientation is a belief about whether the outcomes of our actions are contingent on what we do (internal control orientation) or on events outside our personal control (external control orientation)." (Zimbardo, 1985, p. 275)
Our attribution style determines which forces we hold responsible for our successes and failures. Both locus of control and attribution styles have great influence on our motivation, expectations, self-esteem, risk-taking behavior, and even on the actual outcome of our actions.
