Park Maitland Tutoring Policy
Park Maitland offers one-on-one tutoring. All tutoring sessions are encouraged to be scheduled by you, the parent and the selected tutor.

Each Tutor electing to offer their services is to provide the parent with the Tutoring Registration Form once the parent reaches out to the teacher.
Read Across America is here! Students get to dress up and celebrate reading! This year we have some great rewards. Mr. Anna each day will pick two students a day to receive $25.00 gift certificate to spend at our next Book Fair in May.
