Support Services

Atrium

When students need more intensive support, a counselor from Atrium is available in our school.  Families interested in school-based services may contact their school counselor to begin the referral process. The school-based counselor works with the students, parents, school counselors, teachers, and administrators to improve students' school performance.  Parental consent is required before a student can receive these services.

School psychologist

Our school psychologist provides intervention and evaluations to determine if a student is eligible for special education support services. She also provides consultative services to teachers and staff along with coordinating services with outside agencies.

Academic support

When it is determined that students need academic support to help them be more successful, this assistance is provided. One teacher per grade provides services to these students during regular academic classes. In addition, there are three classes for students that need intensive academic assistance.

Behavior intervention program

At times during the middle school years, young adolescents are not totally in control of their behaviors. Sometimes, changes in their physical bodies, home lives, and friendships lead to disruptive behavior. When these behaviors hamper learning in the classroom, administrators may refer students to the Behavior Intervention Program for the rest of the class period. While in the program, students may complete work not done in the classroom. A student also receives counseling about how he/she could have handled the situation better.

School resource officer

Our School Resource Officer provides a police presence at the school and assists in ensuring a safe school environment. The intent of having the presence of an SRO in middle school is to proactively identify and address potentially unsafe situations.
