Mathematics
Math Club: There will be Math extra help every Thursday after school for 1 hour. This is particularly beneficial before a test. Any students who would like a refresher on math skills are encouraged to attend. Students must make make arrangements Wednesday nights with parents so parents will be aware their child is staying. If students have concerns and they cannot attend this session, they are encouraged to set up another time with me.
