We believe each student has the potential to achieve in the right environment. Learning differences sometimes make it difficult for them to learn by traditional instructional methods. Learning strengths and areas for growth vary from child to child. We believe that individualized instruction is the most effective way to maximize each child’s strengths while also addressing their growth areas.
The admissions policy is fairly broad and involves an in-depth examination of a wide range of criteria. Many of our students have mild to moderate learning differences; however, others just need support and accommodations for ADD, ADHD, OCD, and other behavioral disorders. Additional profiles include dyslexia, dyscalculia, executive dysfunction, auditory processing disorder, high functioning autism or some combination of these. The one thing that all our students have in common is greater success with an individualized curriculum and small classroom size. We are not a therapeutic school, and we do not have specialized programs primarily for psychiatric diagnosis or treatment.
