Tutoring
Struggling in a class? Need a tutor? We have tutors available to help you!
How to access tutoring:
- Let the teacher for the class you are struggling with know that you need a tutor
- Let your homeroom teacher know that you would like to work with a tutor during that time
- Come in for after school homework help sessions on Tuesdays (all subjects) and Wednesdays (Math specific)
- Make an appointment to meet with an online tutor outside of the school day or on weekends
Contact Mrs. Mozrall (On-Time Graduation Specialist) if you have questions about how to set up tutoring!
