Academy of Mathematics and Science, Inc.

The school safety plan again outlined procedures to most safely return to instruction, while supporting the increasing academic, social emotional, and other needs of AMS Students. AMS placed an emphasis on supporting the most at risk students by ensuring coverage in event of teacher illness or vacancy, and a low student/staff ratio in classroom support by increasing number of paraprofessionals to support tier I instruction. In addition, the site was given Interventionist FTEs to support student learning gaps, provide intervention, and support student learning. The LEA offers a long instructional day and there will be more interventionist pull out. There will be a counselor to support the social emotional needs of students, that the site did not have previously. Principle 5 of supporting both the social emotional and academic needs of students has been a primary need for this site in the CNA.
