Language Based Learning Disabilities Program

Overview
The Language Based Learning Disabilities Program began the 2012 - 2013 school year with a small cohort of third grade students with language-based learning disabilities. The program is designed for students with language-based learning disabilities who require a substantially separate program to maximize learning. The program is highly structured to provide intensive specially designed instruction that is individualized based on the need of the students.
