Elementary School

在小学校园的教育支持服务(Owl 's Nest)项目为学习不同或需要额外学术强化的学生提供以基督为中心的教育. We use a variety of multi-sensory, 高度结构化和有序的课程,以满足学生不同的学术需求. The following is a partial list of the programs we use:

  • Wilson Fundations (an Orton Gillingham-based approach)
  • Center for the Collaborative Classroom Collaborative Literacy Suite
  • Reading A-Z
  • Basic Writing Skills
  • enVision 2.0 Math
  • Touch Math

In addition to these programs that “engage the mind,“猫头鹰之巢”以较低的师生比例(通常为5:1)培养学生的精神,使我们能够建立人际关系, 鼓励积极的自尊,并加强我们的学生已经拥有的优势. 随着我们学生在猫头鹰之巢的需求得到满足,我们的目标是让他们自信地迎接未来的学术挑战,并最终为他们提供信仰和工具,帮助他们“改变他们所生活的世界”.

 

Upper Elementary & Middle School

We believe that all students can learn, every day. The Educational Support Services (T.E.S.S.),旨在帮助满足学生的特殊学习需求,以最大限度地提高他们的学术水平, social and emotional potential through a Christ-centered education.  

The goal is to help students understand the ways in which they learn best, 并认识到自己的长处和短处,以帮助他们在通识教育课堂上培养独立性. 新葡京appT.E.S.S. teachers work closely with general education classroom teachers, parents, 和卑尔根县特别服务,以确保为学生提供全面的支持. These partnerships help provide differentiated tasks and instruction, accommodations, support structures and tools to help all learners feel a sense of belonging, autonomy and competence throughout their day at school. 

除了在课堂上支持通识教育的课堂学习目标和活动, the T.E.S.S. program provides replacement instruction on a limited, or as needed basis for small groups of students in core academic areas. Supplemental curriculums include, but are not limited to, Wilson’s Just Words and Touch Math. These additional tools help to close the learning gaps.

 

High School

We aspire to help students with academic subject areas study skills, and self-advocacy delivered in three ways:

  1. 限制最少的环境是在资源室注册(以交替或每天的方式提供).这是一个学分课程,包括学习技巧和帮助学生当前的学业计划.
  2. A greater degree of service is through an inclusion model. Supported through EC staff or County services as in-class support. 具有区分专业知识的教师与高中教职员工一起工作. 当我们使课程更容易为不同学习方式的学生所接受时,所有的学生都会受益. (Universal design)
  3. 最高水平的干预是补习课程,与大学预科课程的年级水平相当.

While we do support students in all academic areas, our most common differentiation takes place in English, Language Arts, and Math.
