|
A Brief Explanation for Parents |
||||||||||
| Bear PAWS is a second year program at John Marshall. We are very excited about this part of our schedule. this endeavor grew from concerns that there are certain needs of our student body that weren't being met. | ||||||||||
| One concern involved the need to provide an adult advocate at the school for each one of our students. Students change classes and teachers every year. We hope through the PAWS program to provide a continuous resource person for your student throughout their time at John Marshall. | ||||||||||
| Other concerns we hope to address through these small student groups involve some academic areas and attendance. PAWS will have an organized and specific curriculum, which will include topics such as Time Management, Study Skills, Careers, and Educational Planning. | ||||||||||
