Did you know that Alice Vail Middle School has extra help each morning for students who may need additional time with their studies? This free tutoring service, provided by numerous AVMS teachers every morning, begins at 8:30 AM and goes until the day's opening bell. Mr. Michael Greer has organized our Study Conference, and has excelled in this leadership role with the gracious assistance of an all-star cast of supporting teachers. Students interested in taking advantage of this program should go to the school's foyer every morning, and talk to One of these teachers on duty: Ms. Deb Ferreira, Ms. Roberta Waldren, Ms. Marsha Willey, Mr. Dusty Fields, and Mr. Greer. All teachers in this program give their time and energy without financial compensation. Please thank them for their efforts on behalf of our students!
