Tutoring/ EOG Help

Dear Parents/Guardians,


Ms. Dosher and I are offering Reading Tutoring on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 8:00am for the next two weeks. If you are interested, please let us know. Students will meet in the computer lab and work on EOG Test Prep. We will be able to individually help the students. Students can also work on Study Island at home. In addition, we have extra test prep materials that students can use at home.

Thanks,

Ms. King & Ms. Dosher
