Advisory
All students in grades 5-9 belong to an Advisory Team. Advisory Teams are made up of a small group of students and a teacher. They are a place where students make plans: for school, for college, for their careers and for their futures. This is a safe time to talk about barriers and needs; to be serious, but to have fun, too. Advisories help students build academic and social skills by breaking down barriers, fostering relationships, strengthening listening skills and — most importantly — building trust.
