The NNHS Tutoring Organization was founded in August 2020 with the key objective of providing a different approach to tutoring. We wanted to create a student run platform to help others reach their full potential in every subject, as well as shed light on new ones. We also believe strongly in the promotion of societal discussions, which led us to form our unique class focusing on 'Current Events'.
We have spread our reach by forming partnerships with schools around the Boston Area in towns such as Waltham and Cambridge. Our tutoring body is composed of students currently enrolled at Newton North High School from grades 9-12, unified around the theme of serving the community around us.
