MIDDLE SCHOOL
Support
Through 1:1 meetings, conversations with individual instructors, and grade-level and weekly administrator meetings where student concerns are discussed, student support is woven throughout the Ross experience.
The Student Support program promotes balanced physical, academic, and emotional health for students as they navigate Ross School’s rigorous curriculum. At the Upper School level, study support programs are also offered as electives on a regular basis and can be taken as often as necessary.
Services for students with different learning needs are provided by the Student Support Services office; such programs are designed to meet the requirements of IEPs and 504 plans.
Study Support
The Ross Student Support team offers a Learning Strategies elective, which is taught in small groups by an experienced special education professional. The class meets regularly and specifically supports the students' grade-level curriculum. Our Learning Strategies teachers are in regular communication with classroom personnel to ensure students receive assistance according to their individual needs and aligned with their academic program.
A Study Support course offers students the opportunity to work independently or receive help from a teacher. Ross faculty are also available for extra help during the last period of each day to help students experiencing difficulty in a particular area or who want to extend their depth of knowledge in a specific field.
The learning specialists at Ross School are dedicated to providing comprehensive learning support services across various subjects such as cultural history, English, math, and science, primarily focusing on understanding the unique ways in which each student's mind operates.
At Ross School, our faculty is exceptionally committed to supporting students on an individual basis. They actively engage with students after class, offering personalized assistance that extends beyond traditional classroom learning. This one-on-one connection sets Ross School apart, fostering an environment where students receive tailored support to thrive academically.
Ross teachers recognize the importance of grasping the intricacies of each student's learning style, enabling them to provide holistic support.
