The Learning Resources Program (LRP)

“After having a very difficult 6th grade in the regular program, Daniela’s immersion in the LRP was a life changing experience.   She found a place where her intellect had an interested audience. Her teachers appreciated her ideas and contributions. She needed to learn differently and she found a safe place to expand her hunger for knowledge.  In addition to enjoying the learning experience, she found nurturing teachers that won her admiration. She also found true good friends. Daniela is now being pursued by several top colleges. They all want a brilliant young adult who learns and sees the world through a different lens. The LRP transformed Daniela’s life.  She is the product of the Learning Resources Program. We will be forever grateful!”

“The Learning Resources Program has been a vital support system during this vulnerable time in my life, and I certainly wouldn’t have made it this far without it. With smaller class size and teachers trained in learning differences, I was able to feel socially & intellectually safe. ”

The Learning Resources Program has been such an amazing part of our daughter’s education. Before entering the program, our daughter was anxious, stressed in school, and had low confidence in her academic abilities. The teachers in the LRP program have taught to Juliette’s strengths and have nurtured and encouraged her . Thanks to this, Juliette is reading at grade level, has become a gifted writer, and is a happy and confident child. We could not have done this without the talented and creative LRP faculty who have provided our daughter individualized instruction and who have used novel teaching methods to help her succeed. We believe that the LRP is such an asset to the MCDS community and that it serves as an important model for future educational innovation .
