Welcoming All Kinds of Learners

Supporting students with various physical, cognitive, and social-emotional needs.​

Belonging means that all students are valued members of our classroom families. We are committed to supporting academic, social, and spiritual growth for all students so that they may reach their full potential.

Educational Support Services

The MTSS (Multi-tiered System of Supports) Team meets to discuss student needs and if needed, students are given Tier 1 supports. These supports are monitored, and students may be given additional support from Tiers 2 and 3. The ESS Director leads the MTSS meetings, which include the administrator, counselor, and general education teachers. Parents who want their child’s needs to be considered are welcome to notify the ESS Director. Supports and interventions follow the three tiers of the Response to Intervention (RtI) model:

  • Tier 1: Consultation with teachers for classroom-based interventions andaccommodations
  • Tier 2: Supported interventions in the classroom (push-in support)
  • Tier 3: Direct individualized or small group instruction (pull-out support)

Our highly-trained, caring team provides:

  • support for students who struggle with various academic learning challenges
  • individual or group instruction as appropriate
  • guided study hall for additional instructional support
