Supporting Every Learner: The Sage School Student Support Plan
At Sage School, we recognize that every student’s path to success is unique. Central to our mission is the Student Support Plan, a dynamic, "working document" designed to evolve alongside your child. Rather than a static profile, this tailored roadmap is built using a rich synthesis of diagnostic data and ongoing classroom observations by our dedicated faculty and staff.
To create a truly personalized experience, we prioritize a holistic review of every applicant. We don’t just look at numbers; we look at the whole child through four essential lenses:
Cognitive Assessments: We dive deep into cognitive profiles to celebrate a student’s strengths and address their challenges. As part of the application, we require current private psychoeducational or neuropsychological testing (or school-based testing if private results are unavailable). To ensure we have a complete picture of a child's academic potential, an intelligence (IQ) test may be required if not already present in the records.
Academic Records: We carefully review transcripts, standardized test scores, and teacher recommendations to understand a student’s educational journey so far.
Parent Reports: You know your child best. We deeply value the insights, history, and perspectives provided by parents and caregivers.
Student Interviews: We connect directly with students to learn about their motivations, personal interests, and social skills, ensuring Sage is a place where they can truly thrive.
By integrating these diverse perspectives, we ensure that every student at Sage is seen, understood, and supported from day one.
