Is there extra help for math?

1)UVMS has Math Lab which is extra math help during periods 
4,5,6,and 7. Math teachers are available during these periods.
The schedule is found in Rm.107 and on the Math Lab page of my
web site.
2)I can set up time during the day if needed. Ask.
3)District-Wide Tutoring Now Offered: Last year the National
Honor Society students started a community service program
called Math Matters. It was designed to pair high school
students with middle school students and offer them extra help
in math. UVMS has Math Lab which is extra math help during
periods 4,5,6,and 7. Math teachers are available during these
periods. The schedule is found in Rm.107 and on the Math Lab
