Academic Intervention Services (AIS) are designed to help students to achieve the NYS Learning Standards, within the Common Core, in English Language Area and Mathematics.  Generally the services include extra instructional time to assist students in subject areas where they have not yet met New York State standards and to support students to overcome obstacles that affect learning.  

At B. C. Cate, we use a model called RtI (Response to Intervention) in order to meet all students' needs. During RtI, students are broken up into groups based on the skills and needs of each student.
