Student Services

The FVL Student Services Program exists to assist students who are challenged in aspects of academic success.  Two tracks are offered: Special Education and Guided Studies.

The goal of each track is to help these students throughout their high school years while encouraging personal growth in academics. Our teachers will strive to equip them all to be successful learners with the gifts God has given them and to prepare them to be advocates for themselves and for Christ.

Special Education students may qualify for Wisconsin's Special Needs Scholarship Program (SNSP). This state-funded program covers the full tuition cost of eligible families. More information on the SNSP program is under the Paying for High School tab.

Questions? Please contact Mrs. Sara Zuberbier to make an appointment to discuss your student’s needs.
