The more information you have on learning differences, the better you can advocate for your child.

Resources for Learning Differences

Center School has played a key role in my personal development. Center School’s success stems from their competent and caring staff. They gave me the attention I needed in order to develop and grow as a person of character while teaching me a solid academic foundation for my future studies.

This school saved my granddaughter’s educational life. The school did a fantastic job of teaching her how to deal with her learning differences and enabled her to transition back to a more traditional school. The school is a hidden gem. I would strongly recommend this school to any parent or grandparent with a child with learning differences.

Thanks to the teachers for giving my daughter the strategies and skills to read while building her confidence. She is in high school now and doing very well.

The self-advocacy skills that our son has learned at Center School will stay with him his entire life. We feel like he has a leg up on kids his age because he understand the type of learner he is and knows what to ask for when he needs it. The weight of school was lifted off of our son when he started at Center School. Center School is a place where my son thrives and grows everyday.

Our daughter attended Center School for three years. One of our main goals was to help Michaela understand who she is as a learner and demystify her by helping her to understand why she was having a hard time. At Center School they taught her strategies that she could use and to help her become a respectful self-advocate. She graduated from Center School and started at Science Leadership Academy. On her second day of school, unprompted by anyone, she stopped to speak to each teacher. She told each teacher that she has ADHD and learning differences, that “this is an explanation, not an excuse,” that she has strategies and is working on using them, and that the teacher should have a signal for her when she is talking too much. Wow. Mission accomplished!
