The Diocese of Buffalo is committed to providing its students with every opportunity possible to experience a high level of achievement with New York State's learning standards and assessments. Schools must identify students that are below a level of proficiency, and provide rich learning experiences to enable the student to meet with success. These learning experiences need to be above and beyond what would be considered the normal level of instruction. This document will outline what our Diocesan schools must do when identifying, servicing, and discontinuing Academic Intervention Services.

What's included in the Diocesan-wide Plan?
