Resource for Academic Purposes (RAP)

Students in the Resource for Academic Purposes (RAP) class participate in small group content instruction lessons that pre-teach key vocabulary, concepts, skills and targeted content to front load information prior to engaging with the content during instruction in the general education content classes. Based on progress in core content classes, students also have re-teaching opportunities to address student needs. Additionally, students learn and implement effective learning strategies while developing enhanced executive functioning skills. Placement in the RAP class is made through the IEP process in a collaborative decision making process incorporating school personnel and parents.
