Before coming to tutoring you must have completed an information sheet and transportation form, which can be picked up in room 503 or the guidance office.
Other projects this year include a canned food drive, raising money for Cystic Fibrosis, and adopting a family at Christmas from the Shelter for Abused Women and Children.
