Dyslexia Instruction

We began our specialized instructional reading program for students diagnosed with dyslexia (or showing signs of dyslexia) in the fall of 2020. We have developed a robust program that provides daily instruction in a small-group setting with an Orton-Gillingham trained teacher. The Orton-Gillingham instructional approach is a multi-sensory, structured literacy method that helps students with specific reading disabilities dramatically improve their reading, writing, and spelling skills.

Dyslexia Instruction

GRADES 1ST - 5

Explicit structured literacy instruction, using OG methods, build students’ self-confidence and a foundation for them to achieve academic success.

Typically, similar programs are quite costly and take place after school, when students are fatigued or have after school activities. We are thrilled to be able to offer this program during the school day and at a reasonable cost, including all curriculum materials: $2,500/year. If you are interested in receiving additional information about this program, believe your child may need to be screened for a reading difference, or are ready to sign your child up for the program, please contact our 7-12th Principal, John Jacobs.

Pricing is shown as published in the school’s program materials. Please confirm current costs with the school office.
