Student Guidelines for Tutorial Time

Tutorial time at Olympic High School is for you! 

Tutorial time…

…is provided for you to get extra help from teachers, do make-up work including quizzes and exams, and to better prepare yourself for your classroom responsibilities.  Please carefully read the information below:

·         Tutorial time is not a social time.

·         Tutorial time is for you to further your academic pursuits. 

·         You may be required by teacher assignment to attend particular Tutorial sessions.

o   These assignments are not optional, and you will be required to attend when assigned.

·         If you are not assigned to a specific Tutorial session, you are required to be engaged in classroom work or appropriate academic reading during Tutorial time in your Tutorial classroom. 

 

“Self-Select”

·         If your GPA on the last grading period is 3.0 or higher, and you have no ‘Ds’ or ‘Fs’, you will be able to apply to “Self-Select” to alternate work areas or small group study teams. (Applications are available here in this link.)

o   The “Self-Select” option will not be available to sophomores during first semester except those enrolled in an AP course.

§  At the end of first semester, staff will review the sophomore class patterns of behavior and academic achievement to determine readiness for this privilege for second semester.

§  Sophomore students enrolled in an AP course may “Self-Select” for an AP study group associated with their AP class only.

 

Your responsibilities during Tutorial time are as follows:

·         You are to come prepared for Tutorial time as assigned by your teacher.

o   When assigned by a teacher, you are to report to assigned Tutorial after attendance check-in with advisory teacher.

o   Bring classroom materials and appropriate reading materials for use when assigned work is complete.

o   You will not be able to visit your locker or the restroom during Tutorial time.

o   You are required to remain in the classroom that you moved to for Tutorial.

·         If not assigned by your teacher, you may request help from a specific teacher, but you must secure a pass from the teacher prior to the Tutorial time desired.

·         Tutorial time is work time not social time.

o   You are to be engaged in academic work or appropriate academic reading materials.

o   Sleeping is not permitted.

·         You will not be allowed to leave your Tutorial classroom without a Tutorial pass to a specific Tutorial or alternate assignment.

o   If you remain in your Tutorial classroom, you are required to be academically engaged in academic work or academic reading.

Navigation 101 is an advisory-based life planning program for students in grades 6-12. It helps students improve their academic performance, plan for future education and career choices, and, most important, make progress toward becoming the people they want to be. Navigation 101 is a program under the supervision of Secondary Education and is a partner with the CTE program office.

Specifically, Navigation 101 has been designed to help students:

  • Develop clear plans for what they would like to do with their lives after high school; and
  • Learn what they need to accomplish today — while they are still in school — to reach those goals.

Navigation 101 operates on the premise that every student deserves help and attention, not just those who are high risk or high achieving. With Navigation 101, no student is invisible: every student has the support of a caring adult at school.
