MIDDLE SCHOOL – CVCA’s middle school seeks to equip students with the tools necessary to achieve success in our rigorous college-prep high school courses. At this level, all students report to a guided study hall location in the Cafeteria where middle school teachers and staff are available to answer general questions about homework, weekly assignments, and assessments.

Any middle school student may sign out of the guided/collaborative study hall and move to the adjoining supported study hall where they have access to an academic support instructor and/or intervention specialist. Here they can get help with more specific questions on a class lecture or assignment or work on a better system of organization and time management to maximize their learning experience at CVCA. This help is available daily on a first-come, first-served basis.

 HIGH SCHOOL – All students not on academic watch or probation are assigned to Personal Responsibility Time (PRT) study halls. Students who would like additional academic support can sign out of PRT and go to the round tables in the Middle School Cafeteria. Academic support instructors are available there to answer questions on homework, help students prepare for tests or quizzes, or provide ideas for better organization and time management. This help is available daily on a first-come, first-served basis.

This level of support is available to students who have an active Academic Plan created by CVCA. To establish an Academic Plan, the family must provide CVCA with a current and specific diagnosis from psychoeducational testing or a qualified medical professional. These students may qualify for limited classroom accommodations and will be assigned to an Academic Success Instructor to develop goals and track progress using a student success plan throughout the school year. They will check-in once weekly during their study hall to monitor grades, talk about assignments, or plan for projects or upcoming assessments.

If you have questions about this support or believe your student may qualify for an academic plan, please contact Dr. Jaimee Hager, Director of Academic Success

Students meet daily with an intervention specialist and work on specific learning goals as determined by psychoeducational testing done through the public school system. This requires an additional fee to cover the cost of daily intervention specialist services in a small group setting (Jon Peterson scholarship is used to pay the fee).

 This level is for students who have an active and updated ETR and IEP through their local public school district and are currently receiving the Jon Peterson scholarship through the State of Ohio Department of Education. These students have a scheduled class period for intervention and receive services in a small group setting on a daily basis. For more information on the Jon Peterson scholarship, please visit the Ohio Department of Education website.
