We have implemented a new multi-tiered support system this year in order to assist students in a variety of areas: academics, social emotional learning, behavioral strategies, enrichment opportunities, restorative practices and access to diverse instructional materials.  Staff, students, and families at Clara Barton School No. 2 work collaboratively to create a safe and productive community that fosters mutual respect and genuine care and concern for each other.
