In an effort to bolster our students’ skills, Notre Dame Cristo Rey High School created an academic support program in which students may obtain extra help in their classes. Students who would like to work with tutors in various subject areas like math, English, or science, are able to utilize daily study halls to do so. Currently, up to 17 members of the community volunteer their time on a weekly basis to come in and work with NDCR students. Tutors come from as far away as places like Concord, Ipswich, Wakefield, Melrose, North Andover and Salem, NH as well as Merrimack College.
The tutoring program is run by Mrs. Donna Brine, a teacher with 30+ years of experience in special education. Mrs. Brine works with teachers and tutors to assist students in developing and reinforcing the academic and study skills necessary to successfully complete the college preparatory curriculum. People interested in volunteering their time to tutor any subject should feel free to contact Donna Brine.
