Parents, We will begin offering after school tutoring on Oct. 5th. We will start with a snack and then begin working with students in very small group settings until 4:30 pm. This will give a solid hour of individualized instruction for your students. We will primarily be working on Reading and Math skills. You will be expected to pick up your child at 4:30 at the office. Students may attend as many days as you want Monday through Thursday. Please fill out the form below and indicate which days you would like your child to receive tutoring. Fill out the form more than once for multiple students. This is open to Virtual students as well. It would be a great time to get one on one time with teachers. Please take advantage of this opportunity!! https://bit.ly/3491LBU
