Students in grades 6–8 will have SOAR Time after lunch. During this period, teachers can reteach lessons, provide additional support, offer tutoring, and answer student questions. Students may also use the time to make up work or complete tests and quizzes.
During this transition year, 5th grade students will have SOAR intervention during 3rd period, focusing on specific English and Math skills. Once a skill is mastered, students will move on to the next area. Next school year, 5th graders will join the rest of the middle school for SOAR Time after lunch.
We are excited about this additional support for our students! Please see the brochure for more information.
