Sophie Scholars

At Josephinum, we proudly welcome students from all backgrounds and learning needs

The Sophie Scholars program is designed to support a select group of students with IEPs or 504 plans. Through close collaboration with parents and teachers, we ensure each student receives the individualized support necessary for a meaningful and successful educational experience. Sophie Scholars meet with counselors on a weekly or bi-weekly basis to develop essential skills such as organization, study habits, executive functioning, and self-advocacy.

If you believe your student may benefit from additional support through an IEP or 504 plan, please contact Student Services for more information.
