About
Our school is dedicated to creating and supporting partnerships among schools, families and community. As a central resource for family engagement, EPA engages and informs parent and families as essential partners in helping students achieve academic proficiency, college and career readiness.
The EPA provides educational software, APEX Learning, which will automatically prescribe students with personalized learning paths that cover sections of the course they haven’t mastered. Teachers adjust learning paths and assessments as needed. Students work through the coursework to earn course credit. Once students have successfully completed their learning path activities and passed the summative assessments required by their school or district, they have recovered their missing credit and are eligible for successive coursework, promotion to the next grade, or graduation.
Additional program components include:
• COLLEGE READINESS & ACCELERATED PROGRAMS
• CAREER AND COLLEGE COUNSELING
• ACADEMIC COUNSELING
• DEVELOPMENT COUNSELING
