    Overview of Program

    The Individual Catholic Education Plan (ICEP)

     

    In the fall students in grades K-8 will no longer be assessed with the AIMSweb Benchmark Testing.  During the school year CJB students will take an assessment called Measures of Academic Progress (MAP).  The MAP assessment will be used to determine students' instructional level and to measure academic growth throughout the school year and from year to year. 
    Below is a link for parents with information about MAP assessments.  
     

    Student Services

    Two psychology externs are available to provide services to students.  They may provide regular classroom instruction in social skills and problem-solving and they are also available for individual referrals by teachers and parents.  Externs are under the direct supervision of a licensed Clinical Psychologist.  The Extern program can provide individual and group counseling for social, emotional, and family concerns.  In these instances, parental permission and a signed consent form are required.  Students may be referred for services by teachers or parents may request services by contacting the externs at extension 182.
