These intensive study skills sessions are designed to help students be academically prepared for both in-person and online educational models.
The sessions are instructional as well as practical, hands-on work sessions. They are offered at the start of the school term to help students thrive in a unique classroom setting that integrates online and in-person learning. Students will leave the workshop armed with the knowledge, skills, strategies, and reference material required to prepare them for academic success. They will also leave the workshop with a concrete understanding of their own executive functioning strengths and weaknesses and with an individualized plan to help them succeed in increasingly hybrid academic environments.

- Goal setting
- Organizational systems (both digital and physical)
