PM at the Peak
PM at the Peak is an opportunity for students to get specific support in their classes. It is not simply a ‘study hall’. While students are welcome to use the time to study and work independently, it is designed to provide students an opportunity to ask for, and receive help from teachers on their homework, essays, or use the computers.
**End of the Semester is January 26, students can take advantage of this resource to finish semester one strong.**
- Tuesday and Thursdays
- 2:30 p.m. - 4 p.m.
- Room 204
