About Us
The LEP staff includes trained Academic Counselors, an executive functioning specialist, and many tutors with diverse educational backgrounds in areas such as business, special education, counseling, psychology, communication, and social justice.
Our focus is on the academic growth of students in the LEP. We work with each student to support them as they learn:
-
How to identify, access, and effectively use resources
-
How to find a healthy balance in all aspects of their adult life
-
How to set, adjust, and achieve educational goals
And much more!
LEP's Mission
To support learning and neurodiversity by providing students opportunities and resources for personal growth, academic skill building, and connection.
Putting Our Mission into Practice
A typical weekly LEP meeting might include:
- Check in time. The mental, emotional and social aspects of life have a direct effect on a student's academic success.
- Discussing the successes and challenges of the previous week and reviewing academic progress for each class.
- Mapping out a task list, breaking assignments into manageable pieces, and determining times and places to complete work.
- Identifying next steps and resources including: attending office hours, signing up for tutoring, or connecting with a peer leader.
And much more! Each meeting is student-driven, according to their individual needs.
