Academic Support
Embracing and Supporting All Learners
At Kents Hill School, we are committed to creating an environment where all learners can succeed and grow. Our Learning Support Program has provided tailored assistance to students with diverse learning needs for more than three decades, ensuring that students thrive academically and personally in a supportive environment.
An Individual Learning Plan containing information about strengths and challenges, learning accommodations, and strategies for success is developed for each student enrolled in the Learning Support Program. These plans synthesize information from educational evaluations, teacher recommendations, and family and student conversations in order to identify the supports needed clearly.

Program Core Skills
Understanding Self As A Learner
One of the cornerstones of our program is helping students gain an understanding of themselves as learners through guided self-reflection and supportive conversations. While we are supporting students with their daily work, we are simultaneously engaging in conversations about their goals, their successes, and their disappointments. This allows students to approach their education with increased confidence and motivation, making them better equipped to manage their educational future and embrace their full potential.
