Re: Frequency of advisor group meetings

Our advisors (Grades 6-8) meet with advisees daily for 30 minutes except
Mondays when we have a full middle school meeting.

Hi!

Our middle school advisory groups meet three times a week, for 15, 25,
and 30 minutes. We believe pretty strongly in the importance of a broad
advisory program for young adolescents.

Our upper school advisory groups meet once every three weeks, for 35
minutes, primarily to review grades and comments (whether interim and
internal, or formal and shared with parents).

Take care,
