4 Meet RickyGrade 5
For Ricky, things have always been challenging. He struggled in school despite constant attention from special education teachers. He went to the hospital often due to his mother’s substance abuse while she was pregnant. And his father was nowhere to be found. Although Ricky’s mother quit using drugs and alcohol to create a healthy environment for Ricky, her declining health made it more difficult for her to take care of him. She turned to Glenwood for help. Glenwood’s caring staff provided Ricky with the support he needed. Special one-on-one attention from Glenwood’s resource teachers helped Ricky gain two grade levels last year. Most significantly, Ricky’s attitude has changed. Instead of proclaiming that he hates school, he is confident in his abilities and is excited to tackle new challenges. Upon entering Glenwood, 60 to 70 percent of students are two to three years below their grade level. Ricky is just one example of how Glenwood’s small classes and individualized instruction through the Frankel Learning Resource Center can help students achieve academic success. Students who graduate from Glenwood’s grade school program have the opportunity to stay at Glenwood while attending a local public high school or an outstanding private high school if the student has excelled academically. During the last ten years, this highly successful program has helped almost 100 percent of Glenwood’s high school graduates go on to college or the military. Glenwood’s dedication to academic success helps students reach their full potential in the classroom and every day life. 5 Building Bridges by Teaching
