“SAP (Student Assistance Program) is a systemic process using techniques to mobilize school resources to remove barriers to learning.” Here at Columbia, our SAP team works with a variety of resources both inside and outside the school to provide support for our students and remove barriers to their learning. If you know of a student who is struggling in the areas of academics, attendance, behavior, or health, please contact the school and we can set our SAP process in motion to assist the student. Once a student is referred for SAP by a teacher, friend, or parent, our SAP team works to determine what supports the student needs to be successful in school. Our goal for every student is for them to experience a comfortable and successful journey through school, and our SAP team is just one tool in our box to help students with this! If you have any questions or would like to refer a student, please contact the school at 717-684-7500.
