| Learning Support Team |
Our Teachers Karen Brown |
The attendance, discipline, and guidance functions have been combined into Learning Support Teams. Each LST is made up of a Team Leader, counselor, social worker, and is supported by the teachers, a psychologist, a nurse, and office personnel. The LST works together to help the student take advantage of all the programs the school has to offer. Attendance, counseling, social work, and behavioral interventions are all a part of the LST's responsibilities. |
