Program Description

College entrance is a goal for most 21st century learners, but many find that they are not fully prepared academically for college coursework while others struggle with entrance testing. This course prepares students for college study and degree-bearing coursework. It will help students improve, strengthen and enhance the reading skills needed for college study in a setting with a low student-to teacher ratio that allows for personalization and accommodates multiple learning styles.

This career and academic track is designed for students with learning differences or disabilities that impact learning. This track provides instruction that is multisensory, multimodal, personalized, and incorporates elements of universal design for learning. Classes are taught with a 6 to 1 student-teacher ratio to better meet the needs of individual learners.
