LOUIS PARK, MINNESOTA, SERVING OVER 270 STUDENTS, THE PRIMARY GOAL FOR STUDENTS AT GROVES IS TO STRENGTHEN THEIR BASIC ACADEMIC AND LITERACY SKILLS. CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION FOR STUDENTS IN GRADES 1-12 ARE BASED ON THE BELIEF THAT STUDENTS WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES LEARN BEST WHEN INSTRUCTION ADDRESSES INDIVIDUAL STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES. TO FACILITATE THIS BELIEF, EACH STUDENT'S COGNITIVE, ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL EMOTIONAL ASSETS AND GROWTH AREAS ARE IDENTIFIED, AND AN INDIVIDUAL EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM IS DESIGNED. STUDENTS ARE GROUPED INTO SMALL CLASSES, METHODS AND MATERIALS ARE GEARED TOWARD INDIVIDUAL NEEDS, AND STUDENTS ARE ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN LEARNING THROUGH MULTI-SENSORY INSTRUCTION. TEACHERS GUIDE STUDENTS' LEARNING BY COMBINING THE PROFESSIONAL EXPERTISE WITH COMPASSION, RECOGNIZING THAT THE FOUNDATION OF LEARNING IS THE HUMAN RELATIONSHIP DEVELOPED BETWEEN TEACHER AND STUDENT. MANY STUDENTS RETURN SUCCESSFULLY TO MAINSTREAM EDUCATION AFTER THEY HAVE MADE SIGNIFICANT PROGESS IN ACADEMICS, LEARNING STRATEGIES AND SELF-ADVOCACY WHILE AT GROVES. 2460344 0 3102210 THE LEARNING CENTER: ESTABLISHED IN SEPTEMBER 2015, THE GROVES LEARNING CENTER PROVIDES A COMPREHENSIVE ARRAY OF FEE-BASED SERVICES TO THE GREATER TWIN CITIES COMMUNITY AND TO OUR GROVES STUDENTS. THESE SERVICES INCLUDE DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, TUTORING, SPEECH AND LANGUAGE ASSESSMENTS AND THERAPY. SUMMER PROGRAMS OFFER A VARIETY OF ACADEMIC AND ENRICHMENT PROGRAMS FOR STUDENTS IN GRADES 2-12. THE LEARNING CENTER IS ONE OF THE FEW SITES IN THE TWIN CITIES THAT OFFERS ALL OF THESE SERVICES UNDER ONE ROOF, AND MANY OF OUR LEARNING CENTER CLIENTS PARTICIPATE IN MORE THAN ONE SERVICE. 2315673 0 2094508 THE GROVES LITERACY PARTNERSHIP: ESTABLISHED IN THE SPRING OF 2016, THE GROVES LITERACY PARTNERSHIP (GLP) (FORMERLY REFERRED TO AS INSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL LEARNING, IPL) FORMALIZED A TEACHER TRAINING PROGRAM THAT WAS ESTABLISHED IN 2009.
