Afternoon Success

I hope that everyone enjoyed their long weekend, it sounds as though our students had a great couple of days away!  Now that we are getting back in the swing of things, a great option for students to take advantage of is Afternoon Success. 
Our goals are to help with Study Skills, Organization and Locker Clean Out, Making up missing work, and to promote a positive learning environment for all students.  Afternoon Success is on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays from 2:20-3:30, students can sign up to participate in any or all of the days, and registration is open at any time. 
Finding a regular routine time and space to Study is something that is encouraged for all students and Afternoon Success provides that!  We look forward to working with your student!
