NEED TUTORIAL HELP? WE HAVE YOU COVERED!
Smithfield Middle School has a tradition of offering tutorials to students who might need assistance or for those who just want to go above and beyond. Tutorials are offered both before and after school starting as early as 7:30 am and often running until 5:30-6:00 pm. So here is how it works:
Morning Tutorials-Our tutorial board is located in the main front lobby and is turned on at 7:00 each morning. When a teacher arrives and is ready to receive students for tutorials they simply change their name from red to green. When a student sees that their teachers' name is green they simply walk to that classroom. It really is that easy!
What if my child's teacher is not present that day? Our teachers are great about covering for each other. Often times your child will see that their teacher's name is green but it will have a message to see another teacher. Since our teachers prepare lessons together, they can easily help any student. If for some reason your child's teacher is not present, please have them tell the administrator in the foyer they need assistance and WE WILL FIND A TEACHER TO HELP THEM.
Afternoon Tutorials-SInce many of our students are involved in morning activities such as athletics, band, choir, and clubs, we also offer tutorials in the afternoon. These tutorials are great for kids who know they might need help with the present day's homework. No need to check the board in the afternoon as our teachers will be available on most days. Students should report to their teacher's room as soon as the final bell rings. Please make sure they let you know they are staying by sending you a simple text or call.
All in all, most of our teachers offer well over 6 hours of tutorials a week in some form or fashion. If this system is not working for your child, we will figure something out.
Have your child talk to their teachers about approximate tutorial times.
