• Mandatory Tutoring – Teachers will designate this for students after school at any given time if a student is deemed to need support after being evaluated
• Mandatory Tutoring could last a week or all trimester long. It will last until the student is performing at an adequate level.
• A communication will be sent home to the parent/guardian to inform them of the mandatory schedule.
• Certain subjects are held on certain days (this changes by trimester).
• Office Hours are held for every subject. If a Teacher signs you up, it is mandatory that you go to office hours (this could be during lunch, after school, etc.). If a student is not assigned Mandatory Tutoring or Office Hours, but wants help in a subject, they can coordinate with the teacher to attend Office Hours.
• If after Mandatory Tutoring, Office Hours and Saturday School, a student is still failing, an intervention meeting is set up with the parents, a Teacher and a Dean.
• Our College Success Team (Brad West, Miles Erickson, Rosita Mallo, Matisse McKnight) is dedicated to making sure you are on track to graduate and can help with college entrance and college retention.
