- No Drop Offs
Please remember that we cannot accept items in the office to be dropped-off for students during school. Our office staff works very hard to monitor and process visitors to the school and it is not feasible to contact and coordinate items being dropped off unless an emergency exists, such as reading glasses or medicine to be kept in the school clinic.
College/Career Announcements

ESS
ESS (Extended School Services) tutoring is about to begin for 20-21. Tutors will be available beginning Tuesday, October 13, 2020.
This year, we will be offering both in person and virtual(via Google Meet) sessions for students needing content support and we have tutors in most content areas. Please review the attached schedule for more specifics on course tutors, days, and times. This year we will be providing tutoring in English, Math, Science, Social Studies, Spanish, CTE, and ELL.
At this time, all tutors will do their best to provide both in person and/or virtual tutoring options.
IN PERSON: If a student prefers to meet with a tutor on campus, they can simply go to that tutor’s classroom by 2:45 PM(on the scheduled day). (If they do not arrive in person by 2:52, tutors may not be available.)
VIRTUAL: If a student needs to meet virtually, students are asked to email that tutor(no later than 12:00 PM) to request a Google Meet tutoring session for that day or another scheduled day. Virtual tutoring sessions will be restricted to no more than 4 students to ensure the most effective support.
We do have some tutors who are offering support on an appointment only/preferred basis. Students are asked to contact that tutor no later than 24 hours in advance. While all of our tutors will do their best to accommodate students, specific appointment times are not guaranteed. Please encourage students to contact tutors sooner rather than later to ensure they can get the help they need.
Within the next couple weeks, students will be able to use an online scheduling platform to personally schedule tutoring. More information will be shared with everyone once that process is set up and finalized.
Specific questions related to our ESS Tutoring programs can be directed to Amy Grant at amy.grant@boone.kyschools.us.
