Achievement Academy

What is Achievement Academy?

The Achievement Academy is a supplemental academic program for Bishop O'Gorman Catholic Schools students PK-12. It is a special service offered to families that includes enrichment or remedial programs to broaden and strengthen student achievement, skills, knowledge and success. It utilizes well researched assessment, extensive resources, proven methods of instruction and a dedicated staff to design and implement individualized learning programs for each child. The program’s goal is to assist parents and schools in educating students to their highest potential. Because this program is supplemental, these services are not covered under normal tuition plan but the fees are competitive.

TUTORING

Curriculum content tutoring is designed to provide one-to-one or small group instruction and support to students so they can maintain progress in academic areas. The program is personalized to the instructional needs of each student and coordinated with the classroom teacher to foster skill development.

Skills specific tutoring is an individualized program designed to accommodate academic, remedial or enriched needs of a child. Following a complete evaluation, a comprehensive, personalized program is designed.

Parent guided tutoring is designed to combine onsite tutoring with tutoring administered by the parent in the home. This is for the parent that wishes to work with their child at home but needs structured programming designed for their child. Weekly or bi-weekly checks by a tutor are scheduled to help determine if the student is ready for the next level/step in their individualized plan.

Private music lessons are offered in the areas of voice and instrumental at all of the Bishop O’Gorman Catholic Schools. Lessons are individualized based on a student’s skill and developmental level.
