Where can I get help?
My classmates. Form a study group! Get phone numbers or
My parents or other adults. They are smarter than you think!
emails so that you can phone a friend when you are in the hot seat. Besides, it creates good bonding time.
My teacher. (Ms. Lovegren’s Info) I am usually in the Math
Department Office (E200) from 7:00-7:30am & 2:00-2:30pm
every day. I have 1st period planning so I can help you. My
advisory is in F203 and you are encouraged to get help from me
during travel days.
