The HONORS® Individualized Academic Programs
|
|
|
P ositive reinforcement is a primary focus at the
HONORS®.
We eliminate each child's fear of failure by taking away no-win
situations. The Honors Center Director develops each child's individualized, instructional prescription
to start them at a level that allows them to build a foundation of self-confidence.
The HONORS® believes you must build on the basics.
W orking a minimum of two hours each week, the Honors begins with the fundamentals
which will enable each child to advance to more complex concepts. The
HONORS® teachers work on a
one-to-one basis with each child and there are never more than three
students at the table working on their individualized programs.
Each child receives a free re-test after every 36 hours of instruction
to determine their progress.

T he HONORS®
uses educational and instructional materials published by the most respected
and acclaimed names in the country, including computers and other electronic audio equipment.
The library of materials combined with the individualized attention provided by the
teacher gets students back on track or ahead of the pack. This, coupled with
continuous positive reinforcement and the HONORS®
student incentive program, results in an educational experience that may give
each child the advantage that lasts a lifetime.
