How available are Worcester Academy faculty members to their students?
A hallmark of Worcester Academy’s academic program is a close working relationship between students and faculty. WA teachers are eager to ensure that their students do well in their classes, and their efforts go beyond the class time each day. Every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday the WA daily academic schedule includes a 45-minute Extra Help period, during which the WA faculty are in their classrooms and available to help students who seek additional support and guidance in their coursework. In addition, more than 25 WA faculty members live on campus, and there is a tutoring program that offers extra support to boarding students at night.
