Math Resource Center Schedule
Hello Everyone.
Tests and quizzes coming up? Looking for some homework help? Never fear, the tutors are here! Take note, too, that we have an addition to the schedule: Erin An and Haley McCreary, our two newest members of the math tutoring team, will be offering extra help every week on Mondays during B period. This coming week is a green week, so they will be available from 1:40 – 2:40 in the Math Resource Center room, first floor of the Schoolhouse.
Hope you will all consider seeking help from your peers because they can really make a difference in your understanding – and that helps you in all kinds of ways!
