关于 The Learning Resource Program
The Learning Resource Program is designed for students who have the ability to achieve academic success, but require individualized support in accessing the rigorous college preparatory curriculum Fenwick High School offers. Students are accepted into our program in various ways. 第一个, some students come to us with an existing IEP, 504, or qualified professional plan that details academic accommodations based off of a specific diagnosis. 第二个, some students receive a new diagnosis during their time at Fenwick from a private psychologist, 精神病学家, or other qualified medical professional. 第三, some students are part of a case study screening completed by our neighboring public high school (Oak Park and River Forest High School). The aforementioned information is gat在这里d and reviewed. Eligibility for services is then determined. Eligible students receive accommodations as part of an Academic 实现ment Plan. The Learning Resource Program staff, along with the students’ class counselors, has helped hundreds of students reach their full potential by teaching them new learning strategies 以及 lifelong independent, time management, and organizational skills.
