Purpose Of EIP |
Children start school at a designated chronological age, but differ greatly in their individual development and experience base. The Early Intervention Program (EIP) is designed to serve students who are at risk of not reaching or maintaining academic grade level. The purpose of the Early Intervention Program is to provide additional instructional resources to help students who are performing below grade level obtain the necessary academic skills to reach grade level performance in the shortest possible time.
There are EIP classes in kindergarten through fifth grades. EIP classes do not continue after elementary school. Students may enter or exit EIP classes at any time depending on entrance/exit criteria. Placement in EIP is designed to be a temporary program for students who need extra assistance. |
