After School Support Programs |
|
|
|
Carlmont offers two after school support programs, the Carlmont Motivational Center (CMC) and the Scholar School program.
The Carlmont Motivational Center is an after school study and tutoring program. Students report to the library (currently a classroom until the library re-opens) from 2:30 to 4:00p.m. Attendance is taken and we seek advanced students and teachers to work as tutors. At 4:00p.m., students are offered pizza and soda prior to going home.
Our Scholar School program is a credit retrieval program. Students complete an application with their guidance advisors and then report to a classroom after school ( after 6th period at 2:30). Students work independently on packets to complete credits toward graduation that they have failed . Students must also complete 40 hours of seat time for each 5 units of credit. Hours for scholar school will be from 2:30 to 6:00 p.m.. Attendance is taken.
Our coordinator for both programs is Dee Cereghino. A message can be left for her at ext. 8669 or she can be reached by e-mail at
