Student learning support services are viewed within the context of a child’s emotional, social, and cognitive development. Our learning support approach is diagnostic and individualized. We begin with a thorough assessment to determine strengths and weaknesses and build a program from there. For children with learning difficulties, direct remedial instruction is offered using structured, systematic lessons that include multi-sensory techniques. Gifted students are supported through the development of breadth and depth of their classroom curriculum.
