Academic Instruction
UNIQUE Learning Systems (ULS) is the primary academic curriculum for students at Marple Education Center. ULS is a web-based platform that allows teachers to provide high-quality, individualized instruction at the learner’s instructional level. Monthly lesson plans and materials address these critical skills in reading, writing, math, science, and social studies with embedded transitional outcomes. Embedded assessment tools and resources provide data correlated to each student’s abilities and needs as they progress through the program. The data allows teams to drive instruction and progress toward IEP goals.
