Support and Guidance

Dayal Center for Academic Excellence

The Dayal Center for Academic Excellence (DCAE) provides academic support for all Middle and Upper School students to help them reach their academic and personal potential. In addition, The Center coordinates peer and professional tutoring, provides study skill assistance, and supports Independent Study experiences during Intensives.

Faculty advisors provide wisdom and support in all areas of school life. Daily check-ins, weekly lunches, and regular updates to families connect advisors, students, and their parents.

Tutoring

Scheduled and drop-in tutoring is available to students for all courses in the Middle and Upper School. Tutors may include Maumee Valley students, parents, friends, alumni, and professional tutors. Because the goal is to get students thinking as independently as possible, tutors take an individualized approach. Tutors work closely with student support staff and classroom teachers to design effective support. Tutoring may be scheduled during free periods, lunch, or after school. Evening tutoring sessions are scheduled at the Dayal House between 8:00pm and 10:00pm on Monday-Thursday.

Study Assistance

Personalized assistance is available for students in need of developing skills in time management, organization, note-taking, reading comprehension, test preparation, and test anxiety. Emphasis is placed on specific study strategies that are designed to support each student's learning profile. Sessions are also designed to promote the development of essential life skills such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and stress management. All ninth-grade students meet with the student support specialist during the fall intensive and rotation. Assistance with study skills may be requested by any student during free periods or after school.
