The KMC Learning Differences Program is designed to support students with learning challenges. Coursework and course accommodations are offered as needed or at the recommendation of the teacher. A parent can also request such services through the counseling department. KMC offers three significant supports in the Learning Differences Program. The Learning Strategies class provides students one-on-one instruction, tutor support, teacher oversight and self-advocacy skills. The Split-Block allows for daily instruction and shorter courses for students who need tiered support, and our faculty and counselors develop individual plans for students with an ILP or IHP, based on the student’s learning styles.
Incoming freshmen may be recommended for the Learning Differences Program based on their academic performance in middle school or their performance on their Placement Exam. If a student is recommended for this program, parents and students will be invited to a Learning Strategies meeting before the student enrolls for his or her freshman year. A short summer Jumpstart program may also be offered for your child as part of this program.
Please contact the counselors for more information.
