Touchbase with Teachers on November 2nd!
After School Tutoring
π£ Attention Students!
If you need extra support in Math, English, Science, History, or Spanish, help is available! Come to the library on Tuesdays and Thursdays starting at 2:20 PM to get the academic assistance you need. No need to sign up, just show up! Students should report to the library upon arrival, where they will be directed to the correct location based on the subject in which they need assistance. If you need help in more than one subject, that's perfectly fine. You may move between subjects once you have finished receiving help in each area.
β οΈ Important: Students will not be permitted to remain in the library or other areas simply to study independently or work with friends. This year, sessions are designated for after-school tutorials, so students must be actively receiving academic assistance from staff.
π After-school buses are provided for students residing in the WSHS district, so transportation will not be an issue.
Take advantage of this opportunity to get the support you need, stay on track, and succeed! πβ¨
