Philosophy and Objectives
The professional community offers many options to educate students with learning variances. Our program focuses on students who experience low achievement in spite of regular classroom accommodation, inclusion, or resource classroom participation. Placement at the Padre Pio Program allows these students to receive an appropriate education in which they function according to their ability. Certain factors, such as a low teacher to student ratio, individualization of instruction, trained professionals, allow the educator in our program to meet the students' specific learning needs by addressing information processing problems, and focusing on learning modalities.
