School Overview
Overview
The East Bay Career Academy (EBCA) serves students, grades eight through twelve, who are not able to be successful in the traditional high school setting.
Students attending the Academy may have diagnosed significant learning, behavioral and/or emotional disabilities.
The EBCA program is designed to provide an educational and therapeutic environment that helps students gain the knowledge and skills necessary to be successful in less restrictive school, work and community settings.
The unique needs of the students are addressed through individualized programming in the areas of curriculum, instruction and assessment and psychological intervention.
A team approach is utilized to develop a plan designed to promote a student's academic and behavioral growth.
The EBCA team includes the classroom teachers and instructional assistants with the support services of a program director, school guidance counselor, and school psychologist.
In addition to the staff, the student's family and appropriate community agencies are vital contributing team members.
Barrington Christian Academy will be 100% in-person for grades K-12, unless Rhode Island has a full distance learning mandate. Read our plans for Fall 2020 and COVID-19 at https://www.bcacademy.org/reopening/.
