Supervision in Magnet Building before after school hours

School policy requires that students are to be supervised at all times. The teacher workday begins at 8:00 am and ends at 4:00 pm. Magnet teachers are often here early and stay late. Many times the teachers are here by appointment with an individual or group of students. Often, they are here for meetings or to set up equipment or labs. Students who have an appointment with a teacher or are attending an organizational meeting are asked to report directly to the meeting area. They are asked to respect tutoring sessions and meetings by waiting to speak with the teacher who is working with an individual or group and by talking in low tones that will not disrupt learning. 

Peer Mentoring

Students meeting to work in study groups or peer mentoring activities should schedule sessions with the teacher or Magnet coordinator so that they can be supervised and space can be reserved for them.  

Magnet Labs

Teachers, students, and parents understand the value of making resources available beyond the school day. With the support of the Magnet Parent Association, the Magnet lab may be open after school from 4:00 to 6:00 on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Students should confirm that the lab will be open and sign up in advance in the Magnet office. The parent association is seeking parent volunteers who will be present in the building to supervise the lab. Contact the Magnet Parent Association After School Assistance Committee Chair to volunteer for this project. 

The Academy is housed in a state-of-the-art facility with the latest educational technology. The building includes biology and chemistry laboratories, a separate research laboratory, an on-site mock medical lab/clinic, a research library, distance learning technology, and other classrooms designed to meet the needs of the program.
