We have several academic support resources at the middle school. Homework Help is after school, from 3 – 4 p.m. We also have a Study Center where college students are available to assist middle school students with homework and projects. Counselors also provide individual and group support for students who struggle with their academics. Please contact your classroom teacher and/or school counselor if you have concerns about your student’s academic performance.
