Context
Students at Pleasant View Elementary know they have a lot of options for support when they need it. When a student has trouble learning a particular objective, they know to first look through additional learning resources within their Personalized Learning Plan to see if any might help them. Next, a student is able to work with peers to help overcome any challenges. If the student is still struggling, they are able to request time with the teacher, either through workshops with other students who have a similar need, or through one-on-one support.
