Acalanes High School Parents' Club
The Acalanes High School Peer Tutoring program is designed to help students in a safe, non-threatening, relaxed environment. The tutors are Juniors and Seniors who are chosen on the basis of teacher recommendation and personal interviews. They are excellent students who are also warm, caring kids who are interested in making Acalanes a place where everyone succeeds. Students may drop in and stay for any length of time and there is never any charge. We always have at least 5 tutors on duty and an appointment is never necessary. Our tutors can help with one problem or many, one sentence or a whole essay. We encourage kids to make Peer Tutoring a habit, but we welcome the one-time visitor also. The tutors are friendly and informal. They’re students, too! Kids will discover how painless and pleasant it is to get help from peers. (We offer snacks, too). Parents, please encourage your students to take advantage of this unique program.
In the past, some teachers have offered extra credit to students for working with a tutor in Peer Tutoring and that has worked well. Parents shouldn’t hesitate to speak personally with us about any issues concerning their students. We would be happy to tailor-make study sessions for students. Even though the directors are not at school all day they are always available by phone or e-mail.
