Building Learners and Leaders Since 1913
Supporting All Learners
In an effort to support all students, especially those with learning differences including Dyslexia, our teachers in grades K-2 and 5 are trained in Orton-Gillingham methodologies and strategies to be used on a daily basis. By combining multi-sensory teaching strategies with systematic, sequential lessons focused on phonics, students of all abilities are able to become effective readers, writers, and spellers.
Our Resource/Catapult Teacher has also been trained in the Orton-Gillingham methodologies and strategies, as well as the Wilson Reading System. This intensive intervention program for grades K-8 helps struggling readers build life-long literacy skills to support them in college and beyond. This comprehensive program uses research-based materials and strategies to develop and strengthen reading, spelling, and handwriting skills.
Our Math Program continues to flourish. Students engage with math concepts individually through ST Math and Freckle and in small groups and whole class through teacher attention to standards and individual student growth.
