Extra Help
Extra help is available on a weekly basis, usually on Wednesdays after school. Students do not need to sign up ahead of time, but are expected to come prepared with materials, questions, and a desire to address areas of weaknesses. If a student is unable to attend extra help on the scheduled day, students can attend another time after school or before school with prior communication and approval.
