Academics

Learning Services

Epiphany is committed to ensuring students have opportunities to succeed and we understand, at times, some students and families need additional support and services.  In the event a student faces roadblocks to success, teachers and administrators will work together to navigate each individual situation and provide the necessary support. 

If a student is diagnosed with a learning difference or other health impairment and is identified through a recent (within the last three years) psycho-educational evaluation by a licensed Clinical Psychologist or healthcare provider, Epiphany will make reasonable accommodations for the student in the form of individualized support and the creation of an Academic Support Plan.  The purpose of the Academic Support Plan is to support the student in the absence of academic modifications. 

In some instances, students may benefit from the support services provided by the county's school system.  Click the link to access Craven County Schools - Academic Services for Non-Public Schools and Jones County Schools-Academic Services for Non-Public Schools

The Epiphany Learning Center

The mission of the Epiphany Learning Center is to Support and Strengthen the Academic Experience for ALL Epiphany Students.

The Epiphany Learning Center, located on the Trent Campus, features a multi-purpose learning environment offering tutoring and mentoring services for Epiphany students.  The Learning Center provides multi-purpose seating options (individual and collaborative), appointment based subject specific one-on-one and small group tutoring sessions, and support with Executive Functioning and self-determination skills. 

Peer and adult tutors will guide each student to develop a fuller understanding of classroom concepts, study skills, and executive processing skills to help master challenging subjects.  

Tutors and mentors are trained to work with learners of differing abilities. They coordinate frequently with Epiphany teachers, the Learning Services department, and parents to assess strengths and weaknesses for each student's unique learning style.  Peer tutors are often members of one or more of the honor society organizations offered at Epiphany. 

The Epiphany Learning Center services are available to students during and after school: 30, 45, and 60-minute time slots are available and can be customized to meet the needs and schedule of the student(s) and family.  Both short and long term tutoring is available.  Learning Center fees are billed monthly to participating families.
