meeting students where they are

Resource Services are an integral part of the Westminster community, providing academic support, benchmarking, and varied multisensory instruction for all learners. Our comprehensive Resource Program supports students throughout their educational journey (grades K-12) helping them to excel academically while discovering and developing their unique giftings from God.  

The Resource team offers multiple programs to meet the needs and abilities of diverse learners allowing students to thrive and grow regardless of their learning style. Resource partners with classroom teachers and parents to identify student needs by offering benchmarking, monitoring, and early intervention. Ultimately, Westminster’s resource team works to provide students with the tools, strategies, and support they need to be successful and confident learners both inside and outside of the classroom. 

We have three main services:

TIER 3: PROGRAMMED INSTRUCTION (INTENSIVE)

Replaces or supplements classroom curriculum with one-on-one or small group lessons, intensive intervention curriculum available  in Math, Reading, and/or Spelling. Designed to meet the needs of students in grades 1-12 with diagnosed learning challenges.

TIER 2: TARGETED/STRATEGIC INSTRUCTIONAL SUPPORT

Supports classroom curriculum and instruction through pre-teaching, push-in support, re-teaching, and/or homework support. Designed to meet the needs of students in grades K-12  with diagnosed or undiagnosed learning challenges.

TIER 1: CORE WHOLE CLASS SUPPORT

Supports and supplements classroom curriculums. Resource teachers lead whole class instruction in Lively Letters for phonemic awareness and phonics, Touchmath for computation fluency, and Zones of Regulation for promoting social and emotional intelligence. Whole class support is used primarily in the elementary grades (K-4).
