The Academic Resource Strategies program at SCA is designed to support the two-fold learning needs of those students diagnosed with a learning disability or students that have a verified discrepancy between academic ability and IQ. Resource teachers provide an Individual Student Plan (ISP) and work on core academic subjects that are modified from the original classroom curriculum according to ISP. Strategies courses are self contained courses taught by a Resource teacher and maintained independent of the regular education setting. 

Examples of conditions meriting the Academic Resource program entry include, but are not limited to, a diagnosed disability, an IQ too low to meet Discovery criterion, an ISP plan of too great a magnitude to be facilitated solely by a classroom teacher, existence of a physical impairment or medical condition which precludes classroom success without a Academic Resource Program teacher.

English Strategies - This small group setting will enable students to study an English curriculum that is parallel to the core English courses with the additional benefit of having instruction designed specifically for their current academic level and learning style. This English course meets core English discipline requirements for graduation and is comparable to the similar course offering in the English discipline.

Math Strategies - This small group setting will enable students to study Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Algebra II, or Geometry through a curriculum that is parallel to the core course with the additional benefit of having instruction designed specifically for their current academic level and learning style. This math course will meet core math discipline requirements for graduation and is comparable to the similar course offering in the math discipline.

Life Prep Plus - This small group setting will enable students to work on executive functioning skills through direct instruction and organizational support. The course focuses on academic support, organization, communication and accountability. With the support of a teacher students learn how to navage the SCA Canvas system, self advocate and prepare for upcoming tests and projects. 

Academic Strategies - Academic Strategies sessions are individualized to the needs of the student. The sessions work on the student developing study, planning, and organizational skills so that he/she will become an independent student with habits that lead to success in the classroom.

Elementary Strategies - The Elementary Strategies program at SCA is designed to support the learning needs of those students requiring significant modifications to a particular subject(s) or learning aptitude which precludes entrance into Discovery. Its goal is to enable students to learn and function at the highest academic level possible. They work either individually or in a small group setting with a curriculum written at their present level of performance.

Credit Recovery - Should a required class be failed at Summit Christian Academy, students may take a credit recovery course. These courses maintain the integrity of our academic program by providing course biblically integrated objectives from the actual classroom. Credit recovery courses are taught by SCA faculty on campus. 

Programs within the SCA Resource Services program are an additional fee for participants who qualify.
