Academic ACCESS

What is Academic ACCESS?

  • A supervised, quiet study environment for students. Structured so students can "access" teachers for extra help, make-up work, enrichment activities.
  • Meets 7th period daily (1/4 credit) – although Tuesday and Thursday are for quiet study only.  Teachers have a “buddy teacher” who takes their students on Tuesday or Thursday so they can have common planning.

 

 How can ACCESS be used?

  • Independent academic study time (Homework/Reading/Peer Tutoring/ Academic Assignments).
  • Pre-arranged travel for teacher assistance.
  • Request peer tutor assistance.
  • Make up tests & assignments from an excused absence.
  • Academic Intervention required for students with more than one F or seniors with deficiencies. *
  • Travel to the Media Center or Computer Lab for research and academic-related work (Pre-arranged pass).
  • Must have a pass from an academic teacher/media center prior to ACCESS period in order to travel.
  • Student or academic teacher may initiate an ACCESS Pass.
  • Academic teacher should complete the ACCESS Pass in advance; log the requested student their records.

 

*Please note that any student with an “F” in an academic course is required to attend that teacher’s ACCESS class at least one period per week
