中学 Advising
The advisory program serves as the backbone of the 中学 experience. Each student is assigned an advisor along with 10 to 12 of their classmates. A student's advisory offers a small peer group and an adult who knows them well and can offer support and guidance.
The advisor serves as the point person for each student, coordinating communication between school and home, and supporting each advisee toward academic and social success. In almost all cases, a student's advisor will also be one of his or her teachers.
During advisory time, students engage in team-building activities and conduct important community conversations. Advisors also spend this time monitoring each student's academic progress, preparing them for student-led conferences and helping them support good academic skills, 组织, and time management.
