Academic, social and emotional needs are met in a variety of ways. Both teams are comprised of the principal, teachers, specialists, guidance counselor, school psychologist and other school personnel. Students are served during the regular school day with special programs such as Reading Intervention and Accelerated Reader and may participate in after school sessions as part of the Extended School Services Program. Accelerated learners have opportunities throughout the school day to interact with the curriculum at higher levels. Students with special needs are served in the regular classroom with support provided by resource teachers and assistants.
