The Learning Services faculty supports the entire Pike Community. In addition to providing individualized support to students in each division, learning specialists frequently collaborate with individual teachers, teaching teams and parents.
A learning specialist is present at each grade level meeting to monitor student performance and to provide teachers with strategies to support students who may not be progressing as expected in the classroom. In addition, learning specialists work individually with teachers, advisors and families when additional interventions and/or assessments may be necessary. If a student is referred for Learning Services, the teaching team will work with the family to determine what type of program will best meet the needs of the child. Learning specialists may work with a student inside the classroom and/or outside the classroom. All learning specialists collaborate with individual classroom teachers, parents, and teaching teams to meet the goal of improving classroom performance. Typically, a student works with a learning specialist two to five times per week. Parents pay additional fees for these individual support services. Our Vision The Learning Services program at Pike seeks to promote the development of students who embrace their individual learning preferences and are recognized as independent learners. We aspire to empower students with a sense of respect for self, that they may become thriving members of their current and future communities. Furthermore, we strive to be a valuable resource to all teachers, students and families in our community. Our Mission Learning Services supports students referred to our program, helping them identify their learning styles and develop skills and strategies to maximize their potential. Learning Specialists collaborate with faculty and families to support the individual students in our learning community. Please see our Featured Resources page of helpful links.
