We want to emphasize that school comes first and FIRST comes second. That means we will be checking in with students regarding their grades to make sure they are maintaining at least a 2.9 cumulative GPA, and are staying on top of homework and other assignments. We have a dedicated quiet space for homework that is supervised by a mentor and we also offer peer tutoring if needed. Students are welcome to bring and work on schoolwork during meetings.
