Our Wednesday/Thursday evening (3:30-6:00) tutoring center, located in the High School North cafeteria, is open to elementary and middle school students as well as high school students. Our volunteers offer assistance with all maths, most sciences, history/social studies, foreign languages, English writing and communications skills, reading, and English as a Second Language.

Once a student is signed up, he or she is expected to attend regularly and is responsible for letting us know in advance about having to miss any sessions. STATE COLLEGE AREA HIGH SCHOOL ACADEMIC SUPPORT CENTER The State College Area High School is committed to helping every student succeed. The Academic Support Center is designed to give high school students another opportunity to reach their academic potential and to prepare them for lifelong success. Programs: • Credit Recovery - This program will allow students to make up a failed course in English, social studies, science, or math using a computer-based program and teacher support from a certified teacher. • Academic Tutoring - This program will assist students who are earning a grade of either a D or E in English, social studies, science, or math. Students will get support from a certified teacher or through peer tutoring. Location: Both programs will take place in the North Library one-day per week for each subject taken for credit recovery or tutoring. The program will run from 3:30 – 5:30 p.m. Late buses will be available for transportation. There is no cost for either of these programs, but space may be limited.
