Extended Tutorials available Tuesday, Wednesday, & Thursday weekly and Tutor.com FREE online
Extended Tutorial is planned on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays each week this semester. Students can stay after school for ANY teacher's office hours, clubs, and/or teams and then report to the extended tutorial. Students must be picked up by 6pm on extended tutorial days. This allows families a later window for transportation while allowing students access to extracurriculars and office hours. Below is the schedule for next week.
