1. I am making myself available to all students from 3:30 - 5 on Tuesday and Thursdays for after school help. The work is getting more difficult and with our busy day, it is hard for some to get that extra help that is needed from me. I understand this doesn't work for boys' basketball players. Let me know if your son needs extra help and we can work something else out...possible before school. We will do our best during the day but sometimes that extra is needed!

Please email me with questions or to set up a day that your student can come in.

Blessings on your evening!
