We’ve LOVED seeing so many of you in Academic Coaching these past few weeks and months! As we approach the end of the school year, we want to ensure 606 continues to be a consistent place to be productive. Please keep in mind the Academic Coaching space is a designated academic workspace. It is open to students during drops, lunch, Office Hours, and/or with the permission of their classroom teacher. You should use 606 for the following purposes:

  • To attend a scheduled or drop-in academic coaching appointment;
  • To work on academic tasks independently and quietly;
  • To work on academic tasks in a small group quietly;
  • As an alternate space to meet with teachers and/or tutors.

You should NOT use 606 as a place to gather socially. 606 will be closed when there is no adult supervision. Thank you for adhering to these guidelines, so we can maintain the integrity of the Academic Coaching space!
