Children learn and grow in different ways and at different paces. While all our teachers are adept at employing teaching to different learning styles and levels, some students require additional support. For children who already have Individualized Educational Plans, we work to harmonize that approach with our school’s availability. If your child’s needs can be met by our staff, there is no charge for additional assistance which provided through pull-out, in-class support or a combination of both.

If your child needs additional assistance or if it becomes apparent that additional support is necessary, a collaborative team will be set up which includes the parents, classroom teacher(s), resource teacher, guidance teacher, an administrator and any other necessary specialists. This team will convene to design and implement modifications to support learning and growth. Further outside assessment by an Educational Psychologist or other outside professionals may be necessary.

Should you child need more specialized assistance, either for additional tutoring or for specific learning needs, we will refer to appropriate educational psychologists, educational aide agencies or speech, physical or occupational therapists. Parents will be informed of progress through conferences, telephone calls and written reports. Additional team meetings will be held to monitor progress and adapt any necessary changes. The cost of outside consultants and specialists must be covered by the family.
