LCS Academic Support Team (AST) Mission Statement: 

“The Liberty Common School Academic Support Team, in collaboration with parents and teachers, will provide targeted academic support and intervention to ensure all Liberty Common students have access to the contextual body of organized knowledge, the values of a democratic society, and the skills of learning taught at Liberty Common School.”

Foundational Beliefs:

·        All students can learn and achieve at high levels.

·        Student’s needs should be met in the general education setting to the greatest extent possible.

·        Parents have vast knowledge about their children and should be involved in all aspects of their education.

·        Students should be assisted when concerns arise, before problems grow.

·        The effectiveness of any educational strategy must be monitored and evaluated frequently.

·        All students are best served when the school properly implements a multi-tiered system of supports.

“Multi-Tiered System of Supports (MTSS) is a systemic, continuous improvement framework in which data-based problem-solving and decision making is practiced across all levels of the educational system for supporting students. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA 2004), supports implementation of a Multi-Tiered System of Supports because it has proven to be effective in accelerating learning for all students, including students with disabilities. When the MTSS framework is implemented with fidelity, students’ educational needs are more intentionally addressed by designing, developing, and delivering needed, appropriate supports. How students with disabilities’ needs are addressed should be documented in an Individualized Education Program.”
