All students at Graham & Parks have the benefit of our Whole School Support Programs:

  • Student Support Team (SST): Composed of principal, assistant principal, school psychologist, nurse, school social worker, and a community mental health representative. Meets weekly. The SST uses a case study method for individual students and their families who are having social, emotional difficulties.

  • After–school Academic Learning Center: Three times a week, after school, one-hour sessions for students determined in need.  Additional spaces remaining are open to all. Late bus provided.

  • The Teacher Assistance Team (TAT) process is a general education intervention process that provides a way for mainstream teachers, school personnel, and parents to identify and design instructional supports for students who are in need of academic, behavior, or social interventions in order to succeed in school.  The TAT process is a pre-requisite to special education referral at the elementary and high school levels.

  • TAT engages parents, teachers, and other school professionals in a collaborative, problem-solving process.  Here the accumulated skills, knowledge and experiences of all team members are directed toward instructional assessment, strategy development, and monitoring the progress of students who are in need of instructional support.

The Cambridge Public Schools is an equal opportunity employer and is committed to the provision of quality educational programs for all students.
