NHS Tutoring
If you have students who need help in science, math, English, history, or foreign language and would like a Peer Tutor, NHS tutoring has begun. Students need to submit their name and the subject and level they need tutoring in and we will match them up with a peer tutor. This year tutoring will be organized through the email address: deeprunnhs@henrico.gaggle.net. The NHS Sponsors are Mrs. Sower, Ms. Divina, and Mrs. Mitchell.
ATTENTION DRIVER’S
EDUCATION STUDENTS: A prerequisite to Driver's Ed is
a learner’s permit. You MUST have your learner’s
permit in hand when you enter the Driver’s Education
class (no exceptions).
