A WEEK IN ADVISORY
| Monday: Every Monday Matters |
| Monday used to be the least favorite
day of the week. FMP wants to change that! Each Monday the FMPs and
freshmen will have an opportunity to participate in an activity that can
and will make a difference in someone's life.
|
| Tuesday: Homework/Study Skills |
|
This is the day where the freshmen will work on homework or other assignments in their advisory. The faculty advisor and FMP will help both to tutor and to facilitate discussion of school related topics during this time.
|
| Wednesday: Student Support |
| This is a time where an assigned
Normal West guidance counselor or building administrator will facilitate
discussion of important issues in the FMP advisories. Such topics might
include transitioning from middle school to high school, career
planning, dealing with peer pressure, etc.
|
| Thursday: Activity Day |
| Thursday is
a day where the FMP's and their freshmen engage in an activity to
enhance communication, academic and team building skills.

| Friday: Weekly Wrap-Up |
| On Fridays, the Freshman Mentors
will help wrap up the week by discussing issues that arose during that
week, as well as prepare the freshmen for the upcoming activities of the
weeks to follow. This is also a time when the freshmen can share issues
and concerns they might have with their FMPs and to discuss upcoming
school events.
