Prodeo Academy is a college preparatory school that develops critical thinkers & reflective leaders, strengthening their character & expanding their opportunities to contribute positively & productively to society.
Special education programming
Works closely with families to meet the educational needs of all students in the least restrictive setting. Prodeo utilizes inclusion & resource room models for specialized services. The special education team includes teachers, paraprofessionals, social workers, & related service providers (including speech, occupational therapy, & DAPE).
English language learner programming
Uses a rigorous & culturally responsive approach to help scholars reach academic goals. Our model focuses on content-based English language development, multilingual reading, & oral language development. In addition, our Newcomer Program supports those new to the United States, & our Family Institute program utilizes community partnerships to connect families to needed resources.
Covid recovery plan
All students receive small group instruction as a part of their regular classroom instruction. Post-COVID-19, our teachers have adjusted the curriculum, adding high-priority skills from previous years alongside the core lessons of the current year to mitigate learning loss. As a result, our students outpaced other students nationally in academic growth in math & reading skills.
