Berea Tutoring Teacher Referral Form

Transcription

1 Berea Tutoring Teacher Referral Form Date: Student: Grade Level: Age: School: Parents/Guardians: Phone(s): City of Residence: Referring Teacher: Phone: Is this student receiving extra support anywhere outside of the regular classroom (ex. Intervention, Special Education, After-school tutoring, In-school tutoring, etc)? If so, where? The goal of the tutoring program is to provide supplemental education in order to bring a student up to grade level. Our volunteers are trained and receive weekly guidance and support, but they are college students not professionals. On a scale from 1 (not at all) to 5 (life-changing), in your professional opinion how much do you think this student could benefit from an after-school tutoring program? Please comment if necessary. Scores and Ranges (if applicable/available): MAP score (reading): MAP score (math): Lexile Range: Other: We thank you so much for taking the time to complete the attached referral forms. The information you provide will be passed on to the tutors so that they can better choose materials during the tutoring session. During the school year, if you ever have any more information to share or desire any information from us, feel free to contact the tutoring team. Our goal is to create a system of communication so that each student is receiving the most effective education possible. Please return this form to CELTS by the date requested to give our team enough time to process the paperwork and contact the parents/guardians. Thank you, Berea Tutoring Program CELTS, Berea College CPO
