Starting Tuesday, January 10, after school tutoring is available to high school students everyday after school in the high school library from 3:45-5:30pm. Students are welcome to come/leave as they please but they are asked to sign-in and sign-out for attendance purposes. One high school teacher will be present each day and the list of dates (with teachers available) is posted on the high school library door and outside the high school office. We offer these opportunities for students who may need extra support, wifi, and/or just a quiet place to work.
