ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTION FOR STUDENTS IN NEED

Intervention services are available for students in English Language Arts (ELA) and math in kindergarten through twelfth grade. In fifth through twelfth grades, AIS Services in science and social studies are integrated through instruction in ELA. Teachers and administrators watch and frequently evaluate student progress through testing and other means.

Additional instruction focuses on:
- a student's academic needs
- increasing student-teacher time
- using a variety of teaching strategies
- adapting the curriculum to the student's learning style, for instance:

Parents are automatically notified when it becomes clear that a student needs help to meet or continue his or her progress toward meeting the state learning standards.

Parents are advised what types of services are available. Support services include guidance, counseling, study skill work and monitoring attendance and discipline.

Parents are also advised when services are available and are afforded ongoing opportunities to confer with teachers. Parents also receive written formal progress reports and notification of their child's end-of-year status.

Parents with questions about academic intervention services should contact their child's teacher.
