Academic Support

AEP

The Academic Enhancement Program (AEP) is designed to support students who have been professionally diagnosed with a specific learning difference or disability, such as ADD, ADHD, Tourette syndrome, dyslexia, or processing disorders. The program’s purpose is to help students develop the academic, organizational, and self-advocacy skills needed to be successful at Bishop Brossart High School.

AEP is a fully inclusive program in which students participate in the general education setting while receiving additional academic support. Students are enrolled in AEP as an elective course for one of the seven class periods and earn a letter grade for successful completion of the course.

Peer Tutoring

Peer tutoring is available to BBHS students and is typically coordinated through the administration and classroom teachers. It serves as an intervention for students who are struggling in a specific subject area and need more support than occasional help from their teacher. Peer tutoring is an effective strategy for strengthening student understanding while also providing tutors with either volunteer service hours or supplemental income.

Study Table

Any student who is on campus after dismissal and not participating in a supervised activity must report to Study Table, which is typically held in the library. Students are required to sign in upon arrival and sign out when they leave. Those planning to attend Study Table should check in with the Study Table monitor by 2:30 p.m. Study Table provides a supervised and safe environment for students who are waiting for rides, attending practice, receiving peer tutoring, or making up quizzes or tests.
