I am free to talk anytime after school between the hours 2:20 - 3:00 PM. If this does not work for you, please feel free to reach out during one of my free periods. I will post my free periods below:
Period 1 (7:25 - 8:10 AM)
Period 4 (9:45 - 10:25 AM)
Period 9 (1:30 - 2:10 PM)
If you can only call during my free periods, please let me know ahead of time so that I can schedule a talk with you at your convenience.
If by any chance none of these times work for you, please message me via ParentSquare or email me and we can work out a time that works for both of us.
Extra Help
Starting the third week of September (week of September 26th, 2023), I will start holding extra help sessions after school.
Extra help will be available from 2:15 - 3:00 pm, Tuesday to Friday each week.
It is the student's responsibility to notify me before the beginning of 9th period whether they will be staying for extra help that day. They cannot simply show up and expect to receive extra help.
If these time frames do not work for the student, the student should reach out and notify me. I'm flexible with finding time during the week for students to receive extra help.
