Removing Barriers & Providing Learning Supports Our Beliefs are… What Drive Us Student Services professionals support highest student achievement by identifying problems in the student's academic performance and social-emotional health in the way that best meets their needs.  Once a problem is identified we work to solve it through direct services with the student, the parent and the teacher.  We offer assistance to schools and families to help create a classroom and a home environment that is best suited to the educational and emotional needs of the student.
