Learning Support Programs

For decades. 索利伯里学校已经认识到,并不是所有即将进入大学的学生都以同样的方式学习. Our Learning Support Program was founded in the 1980s, a progressive endeavor for its time, and it continues to offer transformative experiences for students today. 该项目帮助学生通过了解自己的优势来发挥他们的潜力, overcoming weaknesses, and teaching them to advocate for themselves. Throughout the years, students in our Learning Support programs have been honor students, outstanding artists, star athletes, and student leaders at Solebury School.

Academic success follows when we meet students on their level, and they feel safe, supported, and respected, and from there, we can foster growth and encourage students to push their own boundaries. At Solebury, we recognize that bright, capable students come with a variety of learning profiles; therefore, 我们提供各种各样的学习支持计划,旨在为我们校园的所有学生提供服务.

老师为所有学生发声,并帮助安排住宿,以最好地帮助他们获得和展示在课堂上教授的技能和知识. However, 该计划的一个关键目标是为学生提供为自己辩护的工具和信心, as they will need to do in college.

Bridge and Bridge Plus

Bridge和Bridge Plus项目帮助那些被多动症阻碍成功的学生, executive functioning challenges, or difficulty expressing ideas in writing. 学生参加完整的课程安排,并以最多三人为小组与学习专家会面,以帮助他们保持正轨, complete assignments, and develop strategies to achieve the success their intelligence merits. 这个课程可以作为学生从个性化英语课程过渡的“桥梁”. For some students, 它是一座桥梁,从一个不同的学术环境到索伯里的严谨, college-preparatory program. For others, 它将一个善意但未完成任务和未完成工作的过去与一个充满信心的更光明的未来联系起来, competence, and pride in a job well done. To meet students’ needs, we offer several levels of Bridge support: Bridge Plus, which meets nearly every day; Bridge, which meets every other day, 我们还为那些觉得自己可能不需要一整年的桥梁支持的学生提供一个三个月的桥梁支持计划. Space is limited and there are additional fees for these programs.
