Jerusalem - School Report Question and Answers
Services for gifted students who need academic challenge and students with learning difficulties:
A- I know the school provides assistance to those in need. - Mar 2015
B - Mar 2015
We have two full-time staff dedicated to supporting students with learning difficulties and for those who are learning English (ELL.) We work together as a team with the administration, learning specialists, classroom teachers and parents to provide individual plans to support to the needs of students who are gifted or have academic challenges. Our learning support teachers work both in the classroom and in pulling kids to work individually, depending on their needs. Some students work alone with support teachers and some work in small groups (the largest is four kids at the same grade level.) - Mar 2015
There is no formal class for gifted students but due to the small class sizes, it is very possible for the teacher to adjust to meet the needs of those who excel. There is also a staff person who addresses the needs of those with learning difficulties. - Sep 2014
