Elevate Special Ed Live Resource Room
It’s here… It’s Live for 2nd semester!
What is an Elevate Live Resource Room?
The magic of these live classes happens in separate, small group formats (4 to 12 students) in a classroom where students with educational challenges and disabilities receive specialized live instruction by a Certified Elevate Special Education LIVE teacher.
Elevate ensures that your special ed classes are always taught by a certified Special Ed teacher. We are here to solve that for you! The goal of this classroom is to provide additional instruction that supports students with accessing grade-level content and building foundational skills through our Elevate platform. Students will still attend their general education class but are “pulled out” for a portion of the time, or another time of the school day, to engage with the Elevate teacher.
Students who will thrive
with Live.
Students with mild to moderate disabilities who have IEPs or 504’s and are below grade level attainment. An Elevate resource classroom is made up of students at similar proficiency levels and with similar accommodation and modification needs. Students can be within a range of grades (i.e. 6-7, 9-11) as long as they are all working on the same standards/skills during the same block of time.
