Learning Resources Center
The Batza & Simon Academic Services & Enrichment Center, also referred to as the Learning Resources Center (LRC), is dedicated to empowering students with the tools necessary for academic success. Our mission is to help students develop sustainable study strategies, foster true independence, and cultivate the self-advocacy skills needed to successfully navigate a rigorous, multi-level curriculum.
The LRC’s primary goal is to prepare every student to transition confidently into college and beyond. By providing personalized support, we ensure students graduate with a profound understanding of their unique learning profiles. Within the LRC, students have direct access to Learning Specialists who provide expert guidance, ensuring they not only meet their current academic demands but also build a foundation for future success.
