The Learning Resource program is available to all students in the Lower School. Students who are identified as those requiring some additional academic support can receive specialized instruction in small groups based on curriculum needs. Resource teachers actively team with classroom teachers to plan and deliver a personalized, yet challenging, curriculum where the student learns strategies to improve his/her academic performance. This program is part of the every day classroom routine and is fully integrated into the curriculum. Teachers in the Learning Resource program have advanced degrees in Reading and Learning Disabilities, as well as Speech and Language Pathology. For more information about this program, please contact any one of the following Learning Resource team teachers:
