Tutoring

Tutoring Center

North High's Tutoring Center is open throughout the school day in the club room, which is located in adjacent to the cafeteria (Room 163). This is one way for students to get additional help with a teacher or peer tutor after they have worked with their teachers during their office hours or make up an assessment.

Peer Tutoring

Student tutors are available to provide assistance. Email our Peer Tutor sponsor, Mr. Pacer at mpacer@csd99.org/630-795-8070, for more information, specifying the subject area you are seeking assistance.

STRIVE Tutoring

STRIVE is a free after-school program for students who are in need of assistance with coursework, organization and test preparation. STRIVE meets every Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 3:30-4:20 p.m. in the Library. Learn more about STRIVE. Email Mike Pacer at mpacer@csd99.org with any questions.

Access Support Programs

Student Support with a Pass

On designated Wednesdays during Access period, students can work with a teacher whom they receive a pass from to receive additional help. Sometimes these passes are initiated by teachers and sometimes students request a pass themselves. When they receive a pass, students work in that teachers room for the duration of the Access period that day.

Student Choice

On designated Thursdays during Access period, students are permitted to choose to go to several spaces throughout the building. If they are looking for academic help, they can choose to go to a teacher’s classroom, the library or a quiet study space. Students make these choices in Student Choice, which they can access from their chromebooks.
