Education Programs

The Education Department had to modify its operational hours and services due to current conditional guidelines. We have remained open for limited hours and restricted our capacity to allow only three students per room for tutoring and classwork. Students may come in to the learning center for help with classwork or to complete online assignments by scheduling time with Katie or Tabitha at the Learning Center. Appointments are available Monday-Friday 11-5pm. At this time, we are only open for these services. When the school term has ended, our operations will change.

After School and Student Advocacy Program (A.S.S.A.P.) helps students with additional instruction toward their current studies. Tutoring is offered to K-12 students, as well as college students as needed. Students will not be required to attend every session; they may attend on a "as-needed" basis
