| Welcome to
Assisted Study 
Assisted
Study provides small group study support to students during school hours under
the daily direction of Mr. Paul Lacroix, Assisted Study Coordinator
and CBNA Webmaster. The
assisted study approach identifies students with specific needs and creates an
environment that supports them by eliminating obstacles to their achievement.
Some
may be performing below their full potential, due to disorganization, diminished
effort or a lack of physical resources. Others may need help with the dislocation
difficulties that can arise following transfer from another school or which may
accompany personally traumatic events. Enrollment
in Assisted Study is limited to five students during each period of the school
day. Students are given access to material resources and computer technology that
may not be available at home, and they are helped with
keeping track of assignments, completing work descriptions given in class, assembling
materials and moving in the right direction. Placement
decisions for Assisted Study are made by the student's guidance counselor based
on an individual analysis of needs, but referrals may originate from a teacher,
a request from a parent, or from students themselves. Those who are receiving
Special Education services are not referred to Assisted Study, but are provided
with similar support within the Special Education Department. To learn about referral and placement,
