The advisory period is a structured 37 minute period at the end of everyday to provide additional academic and emotional support to the students of MMAJH.  During this time students will utilize their student planners, set goals, follow up on previously set goals, develop social skills, conduct community meetings, and more.  Each student has been assigned a mentor who is a teacher at MMAJH.  This will be their advisory ‘house.’  Each house has a name to represent carefully selected attributes for which the students in that particular group wish to be recognized.
