Transformative Learning

Our Approach to Supporting Students with Dyslexia

Our approach to teaching is deeply rooted in our specialized Reading Model which forms the foundation for all subject areas. This model emphasizes a structured, systematic, and multisensory approach to learning, ensuring that every student can access and engage with the curriculum effectively. We apply these principles not only in reading but across all subjects, including math, science, social studies, art, and more. By integrating our reading strategies into every discipline, we help students develop strong decoding and comprehension skills, which are essential for understanding complex concepts in any subject. Our educators are trained to adapt instruction to meet the individual needs of each student, making learning accessible and meaningful. This comprehensive approach helps students gain confidence, become active participants in their education, and develop a lifelong love for learning. Through this method, we address each student's unique learning profile, fostering growth and success in all areas of their academic journey.

Jana Thomas, Instructional Design Coach"At The Schenck School, we place a strong emphasis on math, nurturing a deep understanding through hands-on learning and visual aids. By focusing on vocabulary and accurate language, our students build confidence and excel. I'm so proud of how our students embrace math, using manipulatives and Word Problem Schemas to help them reason and make sense of it all."
