Since many of the NCPS students struggle with social skills, coping skills and problem solving skills, NCPS has dedicate our Extended School Year to creating functional vocational courses that emphasize these skills. Most courses require teamwork or small group work or role-playing. Classes are usually less structured by design to help develop independence and leadership skills.<\/p>\n

Extended School Year can be a great way for students to be introduced to the NCPS program. Many new students have previously had poor experiences with school, but through the conventions of the social interaction of the Camp NCPS curriculum, students discover that their journey from unhappiness turns quickly to curiosity which usually leads from isolation to connection.<\/p>\n

* NCPS also includes credit recovery courses during our Extended School Year to help students who are credit deficient.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
