At Knox, we recognize that effective teaching and comprehensive learning cannot happen within a “one-size fits all”  framework. For students who find themselves needing extra support during their Knox journeys, the BOOST program offers support services intentionally designed to prepare students to successfully navigate the challenges of college-level coursework. 

The BOOST program was created to help teachers identify and understand the challenges faced by some learners, meet these learners where they are, and help students to build the toolbox containing the skills and strategies they need to achieve success in our college preparatory environment and beyond.

Guided by our dedicated and highly-qualified learning specialists, Knox offers BOOST services in Executive Function, Language Development and Mathematics. These classes are taught both individually and in small group settings, and meet during one period of the student’s schedule.

Students are enrolled in a BOOST class at the recommendation of their current teacher(s) or the Dean of Academics. Parent(s)/Guardian(s) may also request BOOST services for their student. A student with an IEP or 504 may be recommended for BOOST but clinical documentation is not required to be in the program.

There is an additional $11,660 fee to enroll in the BOOST Academic Support Program.
