The Learning Center
Through the Learning Center, Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School provides academic support services for students with a diagnosed learning difference. To be considered for admission to the Learning Center, students must send a copy of a recent educational evaluation to the Learning Center for consideration. Generally speaking, students who are admitted to the Learning Center have a language-based learning difference or ADHD and, as a result, struggle in the traditional classroom.

Learning Center students are taught study skills and strategies for many of the courses they take at Brebeuf Jesuit. Organizational skills are an integral part of the program. In addition, heavy concentration is placed on developing written-expression and reading-comprehension skills.

Each Learning Center teacher works with no more than two to three students per class period. As a result of this personalized teaching, an additional fee is charged for Learning Center services.
