Academic Intervention - TOUCH GOLD TIME - Policy

At Snow Canyon High School, we believe that every student can master core concepts when given the right support. To ensure no student falls behind, we dedicate a specific, built-in Academic Intervention Time twice a week to target and correct skill deficiencies before they impact final grades.

• When It Happens: Intervention time takes place every Wednesday and Thursday during the last 20 minutes of each class period.

• The Purpose: This is a structured inclusion of each class period designed for students to receive immediate help with specific skills, concepts, or assignments they are struggling with. It is a proactive approach to prevent academic deficits.

• Student Expectations:

  • Students are expected to remain in class and actively engage during this time.

  • This is not "free time" or early dismissal; it is a critical piece of the learning day.

  • Students can use this window to ask questions, clear up misunderstandings, have extra time to complete challenging work, or engage in learning extensions to deepen understanding - as directed by their teacher.

• Parent Support: We ask that parents reinforce the importance of these 20-minute windows. Please avoid scheduling early student check-outs on Wednesday and Thursday afternoons whenever possible so your student doesn't miss this valuable, free tutoring and support.
