School Notes
- Our students find success through intensive 1:1 intervention for learning/social problems.
- Our goal is to help students overcome these challenges within one year, enabling them attend their schools of choice.
- Our creative solutions include full day enrollment, part day attendance with dual enrollment in another school, or homeschool support options.
- Students work one to one with credentialed teachers for remediation of language based learning disabilities such as dyslexia. Students who experience anxiety and frustration need a learning environment and curriculum methods tailored just for them. Foundational skills are improved along with academic skills. Foundational programs include Fast ForWord, Auditory Stimulation, Interactive Metronome, Cogmed. Reading development includes Wilson Reading, Stevenson, Lindamood Bell.
