The High School Play: The Importance of Being Earnest |
Student Support Team
Academic Support
Academic support at Saint Ann’s is offered to students individually and in small groups who would benefit from direct instruction of study skills; organization and time management; and strategies to further promote and enhance reading, writing, and math skills. The learning specialists work closely with the division heads, deans, and faculty to promote teaching and learning strategies that would benefit a range of learning styles within the classroom.
The Teaching and Learning Center (the “TLC”) is located in Room 104 of the Bosworth Building, right next to the Ritchey Art Room. The TLC is open throughout the school day, Monday through Friday. All middle and high school students are welcome to drop in during their free periods, including lunch. They can also stop in before classes begin to print out homework or pick up supplies for class. The TLC and all learning specialists are there to support students with a wide range of school work and issues related to their work. Learning specialists are happy to help with studying for tests, writing papers, understanding reading assignments, organizing materials, and managing time, among other things.
Social-Emotional Support
Psychologists and counselors work closely with the division heads, faculty, learning specialists, health educators, and nurses to identify and address potential hindrances to students’ social and academic development and emotional wellbeing. They are resources for students and parents/guardians, and work to facilitate communication and collaboration between school and home. They also act as liaisons to outside mental health providers to refer for additional mental health care, coordinate classroom accommodations and wellbeing during the school day.. During the school day, psychologists and counselors are available for consultation, problem solving, and crisis management. Their work seeks to enhance the School’s capacity to fulfill its mission of honoring the individuality of each student.
