Learning Resource Program

About

Mother McAuley High School has a long history of developing each student’s unique potential for learning. Consistent with this philosophy, the McAuley Learning Resource Program was established in 2002 to meet the individual needs of students who face learning obstacles during their high school years, yet demonstrate the potential to succeed in a college prep program. Acknowledging that each student has a unique learning style, the Mother McAuley Learning Resource Program seeks to identify those students who will benefit from resource assistance to allow them the opportunity to reach their academic potential. 

Unlike students in other learning assistance programs, McAuley students are mainstreamed into the student body and are challenged to successfully complete the core curriculum, elective programs and graduation requirements of our college preparatory program. Our purpose is to teach our students adaptive strategies and techniques that will help them be more independent learners, graduate from Mother McAuley and successfully transition into college coursework.

The Learning Resource Center is located on the Second Floor next to the Chapel.
