These are many opportunities and resources for students to receive extra help and guidance with assignments as well as fine-tuning their skills. In addition to seeking our one's specific teacher, students can take advantage of the Academic Resource Center, which is staffed with math students and peer tutors. Students can drop in during their option period to get extra help. The Academic Resource center is located in D105, adjacent to the cafeteria/commons.
