The Academic Resource Center (ARC) exemplifies a commitment of offering an unparalleled level of support. Recognizing the unique qualities of each student and the importance of trust in every relationship, we have made significant and intentional efforts to provide comprehensive support to each ARC student. It is a welcoming, comfortable, and safe environment for intellectual exploration, designed to help students assess, identify, and advocate for their individual needs. The ARC is equipped to support a wide range of activities, including study groups, homework assignments, organizational lessons, and tutoring sessions. They are committed to addressing each student’s academic needs while valuing and accommodating diverse learning differences.
All students, grades 9-12, who need support with core academic content, homework organization and prioritization, and study skills may be enrolled in a one-semester, non-UC/CSU approved Academic Resource Class (ARC). The class may be repeated for credit. These classes are designed to meet the individual needs of each student. Students will meet 1:1 with a teacher each class to identify specific work that needs to be completed, set a work goal, and get any core content questions answered. Weekly study skills lessons are integrated into the class meetings. Teachers will hold students accountable for completing the daily ARC class tasks. Students will log the work they accomplish in class and have a homework plan for completing outstanding assignments. ARC teachers will follow up with students and closely monitor grades and assignments in Schoology and PowerSchool.
