The PCA Resource Center provides academic support to students outside of the regular classroom during the school day in hopes of cutting down on the time students have to attend tutoring outside of school hours.
Tutoring occurs in an academic support classroom that provides a learning environment conducive to the needs of each student participating in the program. The classroom is also available for students who qualify to have a quiet working environment to complete tests without time constraints or have documented need for oral testing. The tutoring is provided through the Resource Center director and certified teachers. The Resource Center works with teachers to provide accommodations and guidance the student needs on a daily basis to help them reach their full potential. The Resource Center Director will communicate with teachers and tutors on a weekly basis, as well as keep parents updated on their student’s progress.
