Campus School
Our campus school participates in the nationally recognized school-wide positive behavior support program (PBIS). This is a decision-making framework used to guide selection, integration and implementation of evidence-based academic and behavioral practices for improving outcomes for students. Our PBIS motto, reinforced among all disciplines, is PRIDE: Perseverance, Respect, Integrity, Diversity and Excel.
▶ Credit Recovery
The collaborative problem solving method is used to help adolescents who have fallen behind in the number of credits required for high school graduation. The student, our faculty, his local education agency, family and clinician create an individual plan as a team to help the adolescent reach his academic goals. One-on-one assistance, computer course work and organization coaching can be worked into a student's plan for credit recovery.
▶ Electives
All students participate in itinerants including art, music, physical education, health and technology classes. Additionally, high school electives are assessed and planned annually, and have included woodworking, driver education, outdoorsman-ship and the stock-market game. Like our residential philosophy, we believe that exposing students to new academic experiences helps identify strengths and develop new talents.
▶ Accreditation
The RI Department of Education licenses our campus school for grades Kindergarten through 12.
