INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING
The goal of educational counseling is to give each student every opportunity to succeed academically. Students may initiate these sessions, they may be initiated by the student’s counselor, or they may be referred by a teacher, parents, or other school personnel. Educational counseling may focus on the student’s performance in school, as well as advisement in the course selection process. Students who have multiple academic failures are seen by the counselor in an effort to improve the student’s academic performance.
TUTORING
If you are interested in volunteering as a Peer Tutor: Please complete the application, or pick one up in W101. If you were a tutor or mentor last year, you do not need to get teacher recommendations again. But, if you are a new member, please ask just one teacher from each subject area (you select to tutor) to sign the application, which will indicate they recommend you for this position.
If you are a student in need of a tutor: Please stop by W101 and select a tutor from the book. Once you find one, you will be asked ot fill out a form. Within a few days after that, Mrs. Logan or Ms. Coccia will send for each person and introduce them after Cor. At that point, a scheduled time and location will be established. Each level has designated "sign in" books to keep track of the meetings.
It's a program that works well when both parties are committed to the scheduled appointment times to meet and use this time efficiently.
