SPECIAL EDUCATION Erskine Academy offers a Resource Room setting for students who have identified learning disabilities. The main goal of this program is to assist students in the area(s) of their academic handicaps so that they may benefit from the course offerings at Erskine. This program serves as a positive, motivational setting which encourages students to realize their full potential. This is achieved by developing an appropriate Individualized Education Plan (IEP) and proper placement in mainstreamed classes. The Pupil Evaluation Team meets at least once during the academic year to review each student's progress. ACADEMIC ASSISTANCE This program is designed to provide tutorial services for students having difficulty with their schoolwork. Students may be referred to this program by classroom teachers, parents and/or students themselves. Additionally, assistance is provided for students who qualify for 504 services. The student's progress is monitored by the academic assistance staff in conjunction with the classroom teachers.
