Resource Program
Bishop is committed to meeting the individual academic needs of all students. Students with documented learning disabilities are eligible to receive services under the direction of the Resource Specialist provided this was noted in their admissions application. The resource program is designed to accommodate students with minimal, diagnosed language, learning, or attention difficulties. Through this program, students are offered the tools and adjustments necessary for academic achievement. Faculty members are aware of those students eligible for resource services and work collaboratively with the resource specialists to meet their specific needs.

Personal Counseling
The personal counselor is available to meet with both students and parents to provide support during challenging times, such as relationship difficulties, family issues, or bereavement. When emotional or personal challenges begin to affect learning, our goal is to help students navigate and overcome these obstacles. If additional support is needed beyond what the school can provide, the counselor is also able to offer referrals to appropriate external agencies.
