| Intensive
Learning Center The ILC works collaboratively with the Family Court, Day Treatment 
Program, Juvenile Home, and the local district to plan for successful transition
of adjudicated youth back into their local school and community. Although
the majority of our students have average intellect, most of them are functioning
significantly below grade level. The cause of this is often related to poor
attendance patterns and other distractions in their lives. Because of the
lower staff student ratio, students receive increased individual and small
group work. Students are placed in classes based on individual academic
and social needs. They attend seven classes daily. Emphasis is placed on
improved attendance, academic gains, and social skills to insure success
in school and community. Strengths of the ILC program lie in the collaborative
work between caseworkers and school staff and the emphasis on individualizing
plans for academic and social growth.
