About ARC

ARC Standard Agreement

By using the ARC's tutoring services, students agree to being enrolled in a zero-unit section of Supervised Learning Assistance (Tutor 001). There is no cost, no grade, and no units associated with this. This is a free, zero-unit course used to coordinate tutoring efforts. Contact: @email if you have any questions.

Mission Statement

The central purpose of Los Angeles Valley College's Academic Resource Center (ARC) is to support students in completing their educational goals by prioritizing equitable practices, collaborative efforts, and student-centered services.

Our Values 

Our values are to provide a safe and supportive space that promotes student learning, confidence, class success, and completion.

LAVC Antiracism
As an organization founded on educational excellence, opportunity and access, and dedicated to the principles of equity, justice and community, the Los Angeles Community College District (LACCD) must lead by example, and make structural and permanent changes to root out the ill effects of racism and bias from our classrooms and our workplace.
