Resource Rooms

Elementary Resource Room: The elementary resource room provides three levels of support to students in grades two through five. Small groups which emphasize the development of foundational skills in reading and math are offered to second and third graders. In addition to remedial reading and math groups, students in grades four and five may also receive help with test preparation and test-taking skills through the learning support program. A third level of support provides individualized accommodations and modifications to the curriculum as called for by a student's IEP or 504 plan.

Middle School/High School Resource Room: DC’s upper campus resource room programs emphasize academic and spiritual growth while developing independent study skills. Small group instruction and individualized help is given in organization, note-taking, and thinking and study skills. Reinforcement of new concepts and review for tests are regular components of the resource room schedule. Students receive assistance with establishing short and long-term goals, planning for long-term assignments, test preparation and organization of time and materials. Weekly assignments, tests, projects, grades and missing late work are available to parents and students on Edline, at www.edline.net.
