The CHS Tutoring Club, which aims to assist students with any academic work, was reintroduced last year by seniors Dylan Chhor, Peyton Adams and Sebastian Blessing.
The club was founded during 2021 by CHS graduate Connor Grummon, who started it at the end of the COVID-19 pandemic to help students struggling to adapt back to being in-person at CHS.
“After the pandemic left students struggling to return to an in-class environment,” explains club adviser Bridget Randazzo, “this club was formed to help students who might have had a hard time during online learning.”

After many of the senior members graduated, such as Grummon, the club started to die off. During this time, Chhor, the current Tutoring Club president, joined the club.
“It started my sophomore year, when my senior friends at the time were all in Tutoring Club,” says Chorr. “It was low commitment, and I got to help people out.”
After graduation, Chhor determined that he needed to ensure the club could still thrive without previous members. His influence, alongside his peers’, brought this club back to life, providing a place where students can receive aid on any kind of work.
“Dylan is awesome,” says Randazzo. “He really wants to help students and is very academic as well, so he wants to share that.”
Senior Sebastian Blessing, the current vice president, joined during his sophomore year because loved the club’s initiative to provide opportunities for students to get academic help when they needed it.
“It is a great club,” says Blessing. “It does a really important job, which is supporting students who need help and allowing students to have resources and opportunities to grow.”
During his time in the club, Blessing has noticed that most students need help with math and science, two subjects that he and the other tutors personally enjoy. The club strives to gain student tutors who are able to help in every way possible, whether it be for an essay in English class or complex problems in math.
Although the tutors have noticed a common reluctance to ask for help, they encourage all students to not be shy when asking for aid. They recommend this because all of the members are super supportive and willing to help anyone no matter what subject.
Tutoring sessions take place in the library at lunch on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
