Academic Support Department
At MVCA, we strive to meet the learning needs of all our students. We know that students process information and demonstrate what they know in a variety of ways, with differing speeds and levels of success. We also know that some have learning needs or have been identified with academic challenges that may require specific accommodations. The academic support program seeks to support and assist these students, while collaborating with teachers and parents, to maximize student potential and prepare them for academic and lifelong success.
