The Academic Success Center is room designated for our student body to utilize before school or during lunch periods. Our Academic Success Coordinator, Mr. Sean Murray, will work closely to monitor student grades and offer tutoring to those who request it – whether it’s in the middle of the semester or leading up to Final Exams. Students can stop by the center if they request help or just need a quiet place to study and do homework.
Over the Summer, Bishop Canevin hosts an Academic Support Camp. During this week long camp, our Academic Success Coordinator offers lessons, activities, and tips/tricks on how to perform better inside and outside of the classroom. Students are introduced to study techniques and encouraged to push themselves to the best of their abilities in order to strengthen their upcoming semester performance.
Bishop Canevin’s Student Assistance Program (SAP) is a service that is designed to help students who are having a difficult time being successful in school. Parents, teachers, or another concerned individual can refer a student to the SAP Team. Some situations that may prompt a referral can be if a student is struggling with grief and loss, sudden academic struggles, moving homes/new school, poor attendance, chronic disciplinary problems, struggling socially, etc. The SAP Team consists of teachers, counselors, and administrators who also partner with the school nurse and IU psychologists if needed. The team meets regularly to construct strategies on how to assist these students. Once a plan is organized the team or a member of the team will meet with the student and his/her family. Recommendations are made to help resolve the problem/s in hopes of leading to a successful social and academic experience here at BC.
Peer tutors can be provided upon request. We will do our best to link up you child with an upperclassman or current classmate that they feel comfortable working with. Many of our NHS students volunteer to peer tutor. Please email Mrs. Miller millers@bishopcanevin.org or Mr. Murray murrays@bishopcanevin.org with your request. We can also make recommendations for outside tutoring services if needed.
Huntington Learning Centers offer tutoring for SAT/ACT prep as well as tutoring assistance with reading and math skills.
Quizlet is a web tool and a mobile app that boosts students learning through several study tools that include flashcards and game-based quizzes. You can either design your own study sets from scratch or search for pre-made sets to customize and use to help you study.
