Content Mastery Program

Students in grades 5-8 with diagnosed learning differences are able to utilize the Content Mastery Program which offers academic support with assistance on an as-needed basis.  It gives students additional supports such as homework help, tutoring, and study sessions.  

The Content Mastery Teacher works closely with the classroom teachers to facilitate appropriate accommodations in the mainstream classroom.  They also play a key role in conferencing with parents to determine the needs of the student and to what extent the educational program at SPS is able to meet those needs.

"The Content Mastery program also offers small group ELA instruction for students in grades 5th and 6th who have been diagnosed with Dyslexia, or other learning differences. Grade level content is taught in these classes with accommodations in place throughout the lessons which focus on comprehension, vocabulary, and writing skills.
