The Academic Coach is responsible for ensuring that students with diverse needs have access to our general education curriculum.  Academic Coaches are essential to maintaining our low student-teacher ratio and ensuring all students get the individualized attention required for success.

ESY services are provided each year and are required for students who experience significant regression and limited recoupment of skills during school breaks, and services are determined by the IEP teams. Services typically include specialized academic instruction, speech/language

services, occupational therapy, counseling services.

This is a short-term position for summer programming only. The number of positions needed will depend on the final enrollment, and services dictated by each student's IEP. The Extended School Year (ESY) program is funded proportionally by each school, depending on enrollment, and services are consolidated for PL, Mesa, and CV on a single campus.
