Metcalf's Support Service Program (SSP) is in place to assist students who continue to experience academic difficulties after classroom interventions have been implemented. Services may include in-class assistance, pull-out time, curricular adaptations, progress monitoring and collaborative teaching. 

The Support Service Program includes goals for students, parents, and educators to address needs of students and use resources effectively in order to maximize success. Program Goals

 What does the SSP model look like?

Our Support Service model includes a multi-level approach beginning with in-class interventions and progressing through various levels of support based on individual student needs.

When is a referral necessary?

There are many adaptations and interventions a classroom teacher may implement to address a student's needs. He or she may also consult with other teachers, administrators, SSP personnel to discuss a variety of strategies that may allow a student to become more successful. If the additional assistance is not enough, or if more information about a student is necessary, a referral may be made. This process begins by contacting one of the SSP teachers.
