Gibson After-School Tutoring
Gibson Elementary's after-school tutoring program offers reading on Mondays (grades 3-5), math on Tuesdays (grades 3-5), and grade 5 science and grades K-2 reading and math on Wednesdays. Each session runs from 3:15 - 4:45 P.M. Car riders should be picked up in the car rider loop from 4:45 - 5:00 P.M.
If a student requires bus transportation for tutoring, that request must be submitted with the tutoring invitation.
Students must be invited to attend Gibson's after-school tutoring program. Parents/guardians who would like their students to attend tutoring but have not received an invitation should contact their students' homeroom teachers to request tutoring invitations.
