Skills Tutor Available to Students ALL SUMMER!!!

Students have been trained on a new program Blackwell has to offer.  This software program reviews skills and gives the student their score right away.  This is a great tool that students can use to review previously taught skills and keep their minds active over the summer. 

Click the  link below for directions.  The students know their student numbers (library number).  The password is 1234 and the site ID is blackwell01.
