CLINICALLY INFORMED ACADEMICS®

Clinically Informed Academics® (CIA) incorporates evidence based approaches that consider the whole student when formulating effective individualized learning strategies.  Our method is designed to help students improve academically beyond what traditional methods can achieve.  By combining clinical knowledge and academic interventions, we are able to improve the overall functioning of students socially, emotionally, and educationally.  Our model teaches students how to compensate for their learning weaknesses and/or social-emotional distress.
All of our academic interventions are based on validated methods that have been put through scientific rigor and are proven to be effective.

 LEARNING STYLE PROFILE 

Understanding children’s unique strengths and weaknesses is essential to helping them shine in academic settings. Our educational psychologists assess students using the most up-to-date methods and tools to discover their best learning styles and to develop superior learning environments for them. This assists our clinicians in formulating the Strategic Academic Plan (SAP) for each student.

STRATEGIC ACADEMIC PLAN 

After administering the Learning Style Profile (LSP) assessments, a member of our team of educational psychologists process the results to create the Strategic Academic Plan. The academic coach will use this plan to aid in their understanding of a student’s learning style, and inform their individualized support under the supervision of an educational psychologist.

WEEKLY UPDATE

The Academic Coach provides a weekly update of the student’s progress and work. This update is overseen by the Coordinator of Academic Coaching and is then sent to the parent for review.
