Multi-sensory

Multi-sensory instruction aligns with the Universal Design for Learning guidelines and ensures that our classrooms are designed to give students clear goals and flexible options to engage in learning through all senses-visual, auditory, tactile-kinesthetic. Our faculty are professionally trained in evidence-based instructional approaches that are founded on brain science and strategy-driven to promote academic confidence and remove barriers to learning.

Orton-Gillingham

Students participate in intensive, explicit, systematic learning each day with “gold-standard” programs that enhance skills in structured literacy. Research-based approaches include Orton-Gillingham, Wilson Reading Systems, LindaMood Bell, and Fast ForWord.

CRA Math

This three-step approach is highly effective for students who struggle with math. CRA teaches a gradual, systematic process of using concrete manipulatives to build the problem, a representational drawing to visualize the problem, and abstract symbols to solve the problem.

tech tools

Students may receive instruction in the use of technology programs and applications that align with their accommodations in reading, writing, and math. These tools allow students to save time and overcome challenges with handwriting, reading, and note-taking.
