OUR PROGRAM IS BUILT FOR SUCCESS

We've created a program that will change your student forever.

As the Director of Program, I'm responsible to create an innovative and comprehensive educational experience for our students. By utilizing the Orton-Gillingham multi-sensory teaching approach as our core instructional methodology we are able to teach your student in the way they learn.

Our program strategies are applied in small groups, whole class, and school-wide learning. This helps students generalize their skills across classrooms and attain social skills. Because it's not limited to a specific curriculum, these techniques can serve an individual for a lifetime.

Our program wouldn't work without an amazing team to implement it. All Prentice teachers are fully credentialed. Beyond that, the school requires that they receive full training in the Orton-Gillingham Approach, as well as other research validated instructional approaches.

I look forward to working with you and your student personally.

Sincerely,

Sabrina Clark, Director of Program
