Academic Assistance
Academic Assistance (AA) is an after school tutor session where students have the opportunity to get additional help in their courses. Students can retake tests to improve grades only after participating in Academic Assistance. Each student is expected to attend AA as long as the student's grade average is below 80 in any class or if the student has made less than 80 on a major assignment.
Academic Assistance takes priority over all other activities including club meetings, athletic events or practices.
Students are responsible for making transportation arrangements when attending AA. Students who know that they will miss an assigned Academic Assistance session must notify their teacher. If the absence is excused, AA may be rescheduled at the earliest convenience.

Academic Intervention:
Academic Intervention is designed to help struggling students accomplish their academic goals. It usually involves meeting with the student to discuss their struggles, suggesting strategies for the student to try, and then monitoring the student to see if the strategies are effective. The goal of academic intervention is for the student to internalize and improve academic behaviors that will lead to classroom success.
Seat Time Recovery
Seat time recovery allows students who are currently passing a course or just below passing and have more than the maximum number of absences the opportunity to recover class hours. STR will enable participants to make up the hours required to receive credit for a course.
