Guided Resource
The Guided Resource class at Northside Middle School is designed to develop, strengthen, and improve the skills of students for positive academic performance and achievement.
Success in this classroom is attainable by each student. Working together (student, teacher, and parents) allows the opportunity to attain academic success and achievment of goals. Success is accomplished through content area course work and the reteaching of previously taught skills in a smaller classroom environment. As your teacher, I will not ask you to do anything that you are not capable of doing, but I will ask you to challenge yourself academically.
Another component of Guided Resource is learning self-advocacy skills and participating in transition planning for the future. Each student's progress is monitored and reviewed throughout the year according to his/her IEP (Individual Educational Plan).
