Academic Support
support at every step
Academic support at Webb isn’t a separate service – it’s woven into the fabric of every student’s experience. From our Pre-K Junior Spartans through our graduating seniors, we ensure that each student has the tools, relationships, and resources needed as they explore, reach higher, and grow. Whether it’s a quiet check-in with a teacher, time with a learning specialist, or a dedicated space to ask questions, students are never alone in their learning journey. We're a community where care, partnership, and purposeful support guide every step.
Personalized Attention That Makes a Difference
Our commitment to small class sizes ensures that every student is known, heard, and supported. Teachers build strong relationships with their students, learning how each one thinks, learns, and excels. This personal connection allows teachers to provide real-time feedback, tailor instruction, and champion growth. At every grade level, we also prioritize open communication with families, believing that student success is strongest when home and school work hand in hand.
Help and direction are Always Within Reach
Webb students benefit from a wide array of built-in academic support systems that vary by division. In Lower School, Homework Helpers gives students the chance to get a jump start on assignments and receive extra guidance. In Middle School, daily extra help periods and before- and after-school Math Labs provide additional time to ask questions and solidify learning. Free periods in Upper School offer students the flexibility to meet with teachers or seek assistance at the Writing Center or Math Lab. These intentional structures teach students how to advocate for themselves while reinforcing the value of asking for help.
Learning Centers for Focused Growth
Each division at Webb houses a Learning Center led by a professional learning specialist. These centers deliver personalized academic support tailored to each student’s needs – whether it’s reinforcing foundational skills, building executive function strategies, or addressing specific learning differences. Students work one-on-one or in small groups, and specialists collaborate closely with teachers to implement effective strategies that enhance student success in the classroom. The primary aim is to ensure students possess the skills, resolve, and independence essential to achieving their fullest potential.
