📚 PCMS AFTER-SCHOOL TUTORING 📚
Attention, PCMS Families! ❤️🤍💙
Interest sheets for after-school tutoring will be coming home with students this evening! Please be on the lookout for these forms and take a few moments to review and return them if your child is interested in participating.
✨ Why is after-school tutoring important?
Tutoring provides students with extra time and support to:
✅ Strengthen skills in Math, ELA, and other subject areas.
✅ Receive additional help with challenging concepts.
✅ Complete missing assignments and improve academic performance.
✅ Build confidence and develop stronger study habits.
✅ Prepare for upcoming assessments and reach their academic goals!
At Pleasants County Middle School, we want every student to have the opportunity to succeed! After-school tutoring is a great way to provide additional support, reinforce classroom learning, and help students reach their full potential. 💪📖
We encourage families to take advantage of this opportunity to support their child's academic growth!
Tutoring will be held on each Tuesday and Thursday from 3:45 p.m.-4:45 p.m.
Tutoring will begin on Thursday, November 5th! You may also discuss this opportunity with your child's teacher(s) at the upcoming parent-teacher conferences!
Thank you for your continued support of PCMS and our Minutemen!
