Advanced Academics Programs

Our Advanced Academics Resource Teacher

Parents may refer their child for advanced academic services or get additional information on the screening process or advanced academic opportunities at Wolftrap by contacting Mrs. Newman at @email.  Ongoing observation and assessment ensure that student needs are being met.
