School Notes

Jemicy School educates bright students struggling with dyslexia or other language-based learning differences by addressing both their intellectual strengths and their learning needs.
The School utilizes creative, multisensory, and research-based programs and techniques to develop reading, writing, spelling, organization, and math skills; promote a love of learning; and prepare students for the intellectual and social rigors of college and life.
Our faculty is trained in the science of reading and structured literacy, which informs our research-based instructional techniques.
By using and integrating these teaching techniques, Jemicy teachers can tailor instruction to each student's learning needs.
In addition, technology enhances each student's native problem-solving capability.
Jemicy students learn to understand and appreciate their unique learning styles and become effective self-advocates.
Jemicy School is committed to fostering mutual respect among students, parents, faculty, and staff.
We expect all to be partners in establishing and maintaining an atmosphere in which every individual is valued and respected.
