As our students mature and encounter new experiences and challenges, support becomes even more multifaceted. Along with a student’s team of teachers and advisor, the Academic 支持 and Enrichment team monitors student academic progress and communicates regularly with faculty about student engagement, 最佳教学实践, and learning accommodations. Our team collaborates closely with the Middle and 上学校 Counselor. Depending on the level of identified need, the team will meet one-on-one or with groups of students to assist and support them in their academic goals. The Academic 支持 and Enrichment team also instructs students in the area of study skills including note-taking, 测试准备方法, 主动阅读策略, and executive functioning skills including organization and time management skills. A central component of our work as a school is to help students learn to understand themselves as learners and to advocate for their needs.
