The Pendleton School offers options for students who require additional academic support ....
The Learning Resource Center (LRC) is staffed by three specialists who offer learning enrichment to maximize students' success. The LRC has expanded to include a quiet reading room and has moved to the B Dorm in suite B101. Feel free to contact a Learning Specialist with any questions about your child's needs:
Lauren Brook, Department Head
Phyllis King
Kate Reedy
For students with documented learning differences who may need extra academic support, this contracted service includes:
- Assistance with organizational skills, study skills, and remediation
- Parent-teacher-administration-coach collaboration
- Aid in completing specific assignments and projects
- Individualized services based on the specific needs of each participating student
The Learning Specialist meets with students several times per week to ensure that assignments are current and to help with the strengthening of academic skills. The Specialist also works with faculty on student accommodations and individual accommodation plans. If needed, the Specialist also helps prepare documentation for accommodations on the SAT and ACT standardized tests for college entrance.
For students who do not have documented learning differences but require additional support, the tutorial program is available. Depending on the individual needs of the students, the tutorial teachers assist students with:
- Organization
- Time management
- Work completion
All students' academic progress is monitored on a bi-weekly basis and communicated between faculty members and the LRC staff.
The Learning Resource specialists are highly qualified to address academic learning needs - you may contact Lauren Brook at any time to discuss issues and options.
