Student Academic Center

MISSION

The Student Academic Center (SAC) has grown to become a sanctuary for educational empowerment. Through a variety of workshops, services, academic tutoring, and coaching, the SAC offers students the opportunity to understand themselves and the way they learn. They will make the most of their strengths, weaknesses, learning preferences, and the resources available to them. 

All individual sessions, daily group sessions, and workshops reflect the diverse needs of all our students so that they may enter college and life equipped with the skill sets that drive academic promise, creative problem solving, self-advocacy, and confidence. 

The SAC is located in OK3 in the Media Center. 

SOMETHING FOR EVERY LEARNER

Maybe you're a student who struggles in a particular subject. Or perhaps you're an Honors student who has trouble organizing their thoughts on paper. Or maybe you're a student who has a bit of anxiety before testing and you simply want to learn a few mindfulness techniques. The Student Academic Center caters to all of our students and all of their academic needs.
