Academic Supports

The purpose of tutorial is for students to receive help from teachers or peer tutors, work on schoolwork, get make-up work after or before an absence, use the College and Career Center, and see case managers or school counselors. Tutorial time may also be used for school business such as safety drills and other programming.

Leigh’s Tutorial Norms:

• Attend tutorial every day.
• Check to see if you’re assigned to a specific tutorial.
• If assigned to multiple tutorials on the same day, attend the priority subject tutorial.
• If unassigned, choose an open tutorial to work productively.
• Always be on time, and make sure your attendance is recorded.
• Maintain a learning environment that allows all students to work productively.
• All school and classroom rules and expectations apply to tutorial.

Students in violation of Tutorial Norms are subject to consequences at the discretion of the teacher and/or Assistant Principal without prior warning. 

Where to Go During Tutorial

• Each teacher’s tutorial is either open to all students, limited to certain students, or assigned to specific students.
• Open (green) = This tutorial is open to any student, even if you aren’t in this teacher’s class.
• Limited (yellow) = This tutorial is limited to certain students only. For example, the teacher may limit their tutorial to their current students, a specific grade level, or a certain class. Check the sign on the teacher’s door.
• Assigned (red) = This tutorial is for assigned students only. Check 5-Star to see if you’re assigned. If not, go elsewhere.
• Check the color-coded signs outside teachers’ classrooms to choose a class for tutorial.
• The cafeteria is open to all students. Phones must be put away and students may work quietly and individually (no group work).

Tutorial Attendance

Tutorial is part of the school day; attendance is required. Absences and tardies will be indicated on the student attendance record; unexcused absences will be treated as truancies. Students who do not have a 1st or 4th period class must attend tutorial as the start of their school day.

Assigned Tutorial

Teachers may assign students to attend a specific tutorial on a specific date. Students can check 5-Star to see if they’ve been assigned. If students are assigned to multiple classes on the same day, they must attend the priority subject for the day. If the priority subject does not apply, then the student may choose which assigned tutorial to go to.
