By Katie Lewis, Study Hall and Homework Center
As the end of the semester approaches, we wanted to inform you about two academic support programs new to D’Evelyn this year: Study Hall and the Academic Assistance Center. Study Hall is an in-school class that replaces an elective. It focuses on academic skills such as organization, time-management, studying, note-taking, test-taking, reading, and writing. This class also allows students the opportunity to spend time focusing on the work assigned in their core classes with supervision and support. There are three tiers of criteria we utilize to enroll students in this course based on their core classes. The first tier includes 7th and 8th grade students who end the semester with any Fs or 3 Ds, the second tier includes 7th and 8th grade students who finish the semester with 2 Ds, and the third tier includes 9th grade students who finish the semester with 2 Ds. These students will be contacted to participate in the program. The Academic Assistance Center meets after school from 2:45-4:00 pm and provides students and opportunity to complete homework and receive additional support with daily assignments, larger projects, and/or studying for tests. Students can be referred to attend this program by teachers, administrators, or counselors. They can also voluntarily enroll, by showing up after school. If you are interested in our new support programs, please contact your student’s administrator, counselor, or Mrs. Lewis. Comments are closed.
