Elementary School Support Services 
 

 Learning Support:

Our Elementary Learning Support program is built on the belief that inclusion strengthens our school community and benefits all learners. We provide individualized, targeted support for students with identified learning needs through one-to-one services, small-group instruction, and specialized interventions. By collaborating closely with teachers and families, our team provides differentiated instruction and classroom accommodations in both general and specialized settings. Whether through co-teaching or specific support outlined in an Individualized Learning Plan (ILP), we ensure every student can access the curriculum, develop foundational skills, and achieve success alongside their peers.

 

 English as an Additional Language (EAL):

Our EAL team supports students who are learning English by developing their reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills. Support is provided by helping EAL students align their learning with the content being taught to their peers, ensuring they can develop greater language proficiency and participate in all classroom activities.

 

 Counseling Services:

Our elementary school counselors support student well-being by teaching social and emotional skills that help children manage their feelings and build positive relationships. Through classroom lessons, small groups, and individual meetings, the counselor works with students to foster a healthy school environment. We also provide support to parents and families to ensure students have the help they need both at home and in the classroom.

 

 Life Centered Education (LCE):

The Life-Centered Education (LCE) program offers a modified, individualized learning experience designed for students with significant learning, intellectual, or developmental needs. The curriculum emphasizes developing independence, focusing on functional academics, social interaction, and practical daily living tasks.

Students benefit from personalized instruction and tailored support provided by trained educators and instructional assistants. Through a comprehensive, team-based approach, services from speech-language pathologists and occupational therapists are integrated into daily classroom activities.

Whenever possible, students are included in regular classrooms and extracurricular activities, promoting inclusion and fostering both social and academic growth.

 

 Speech and Language Services:

Our Speech and Language services support students facing communication delays, disorders, or social challenges that affect their classroom performance. To determine whether services are needed, our specialist evaluates various areas of communication, including articulation, voice, fluency, and a student's understanding and use of language. By addressing these specific needs, we help students improve their communication skills and participate more effectively in their daily school environment.
