Welcome from Resource Program

My name is Mrs. Jackson and at this time I would like to take you on a tour of the Resource Program.

The Resource program is designed to service students who are identified as having special needs, Section 504 Plans, and those who are designated as at risk students. The servicing requirements of students who are identified as having special needs are determined by the public school system’s multidisciplinary team, medical professionals, Cranston Johnston Catholic Regional School’s own Teacher Support Team and administrators and, of course, parents.

The Resource Program provides academic support services to children individually or in a small group setting on a regular weekly schedule in 30 to 45 minute intervals, depending on the severity of each student’s problem or need. During resource time, the student is provided an alternative approach to learning that is appropriate to that child’s learning style. This provision enhances the performance level and confidence level of each student.

It is the goal of Cranston-Johnston Catholic Regional School to meet the needs of the individual child increasing the student’s potential to learn in a particular subject area to the best of his/her ability.
