1. What should I do if I am failing or struggling in a class?
The first course of action is to speak with your teacher to determine why you are struggling.
Develop a plan of action to turn your achievement around.
Go to the tutoring center after school in the upper house library or in L107 during your lunch period.
See if you are able to retake a test or quiz.
Ask your teacher how to study for the class.
Ask your teacher for additional resources to assist you.
2. How does the After School tutoring and the Lower House Tutoring centers work?
Tutoring Center - Everyday after school until 3:15 with a certified teacher. The center is open daily until 3:45 PM
Lower House Tutoring center - In general, the LH tutoring center focuses on Math and writing. It is open every period; however, it is mainly used during lunch periods. If students are struggling with two or more classes, they will be scheduled once a week during their lunch period to meet with the tutor Mrs. Geist.
3. Why should I do homework if it is not getting graded?
Homework is seen as practice. Practice should be done in order to prepare yourself to perform, in this case on an assessment.
4. How can I retake a test?
A student may retake any summative assessment, except certain AP tests, large projects, extended research papers, summer summative assessments, and midterms and finals.
If you choose to retake, you will need all your homework complete and may have to attend a tutoring session with your teacher.
