Free Math and Literacy Tutoring
for ANY students Free Math and Literacy Tutoring for
pre-selected
students Tuesday Folders - To improve communication between school and home, each student will take home a folder every Tuesday. In this folder is: Information from school and teachers about upcoming events, some of the student's work from the previous week and other important information. Some papers are to keep at home, some are papers to return to school on Wednesday. Most teams are requiring a parent's signature to confirm that the student has shown his folder to an adult. Note: 7th Graders will discontinue this folder at semester so they can develop habits that will prepare them for Jr. High, however, parents are encouraged to ask their child for the information that will still be sent home with them. Students will still use their agendas to communicate what is going on in the classroom. Study Hall during Enhancement
