ACADEMY: AS AN INDEPENDENT SCHOOL LOCATED IN ST. LOUIS PARK, MINNESOTA, SERVING OVER 270 STUDENTS, THE PRIMARY GOAL FOR STUDENTS AT GROVES IS TO STRENGTHEN THEIR BASIC ACADEMIC AND LITERACY SKILLS. CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION FOR STUDENTS IN GRADES 1-12 ARE BASED ON THE BELIEF THAT STUDENTS WITH LEARNING DISABILITIES LEARN BEST WHEN INSTRUCTION ADDRESSES INDIVIDUAL STRENGTHS AND WEAKNESSES. TO FACILITATE THIS BELIEF, EACH STUDENT'S COGNITIVE, ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL EMOTIONAL ASSETS AND GROWTH AREAS ARE IDENTIFIED, AND AN INDIVIDUAL EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM IS DESIGNED. STUDENTS ARE GROUPED INTO SMALL CLASSES, METHODS AND MATERIALS ARE GEARED TOWARD INDIVIDUAL NEEDS, AND STUDENTS ARE ACTIVELY ENGAGED IN LEARNING THROUGH MULTI-SENSORY INSTRUCTION. TEACHERS GUIDE STUDENTS' LEARNING BY COMBINING THE PROFESSIONAL EXPERTISE WITH COMPASSION, RECOGNIZING THAT THE FOUNDATION OF LEARNING IS THE HUMAN RELATIONSHIP DEVELOPED BETWEEN TEACHER AND STUDENT. MANY STUDENTS RETURN SUCCESSFULLY TO MAINSTREAM EDUCATION AFTER THEY HAVE MADE SIGNIFICANT PROGESS IN ACADEMICS, LEARNING STRATEGIES AND SELF-ADVOCACY WHILE AT GROVES.
Expenses $8,893,239 · Grants $1,886,187 · Revenue $10,281,382

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.
