Early Intervention Scholarship
Early Intervention Scholarship Research is increasingly clear that early intervention is critical for educating children with learning differences, especially if there is a family history of dyslexia or undiagnosed learning challenges. Many times parents are given a variety of reasons why they should “wait and see” and hope that their child’s academic skills improve with time. To make it possible for children to receive early intensive intervention, we offer scholarships for students in grades K-2. Call 609-730-9553 for more information.
Learning Differences at Each Grade Level
No matter what academic level you child is at, we have the resources and tools to help them grow into their true academic potential. Here is what a typical child with learning differences at Cambridge may be dealing with at each level:
Lower School (Grades K-4)
The typical Cambridge Lower School student struggles with the fundamental concepts of reading, writing and/or math. While the nature and degree of the challenges vary from student to student, it can range from poor letter and number recognition and formation, to the inability to decode connected sounds. After initial diagnostic assessment, students are placed in small groups based on specific areas of need, to receive structured literacy and math instruction.
Middle School (Grades 5-8)
Each student’s learning profile is increasingly unique at this level. Middle School students who are newly admitted to Cambridge can present with a range of challenges from poor decoding and spelling skills, to higher level language comprehension challenges, weak executive function, math difficulties, and/or insufficient written expression skills. At this level, diagnostic assessment is critical to allow for the differential academic instruction that each student personally needs to succeed.
Upper School (Grades 9-12)
As with the Middle School student, the learning profile of the Upper School student varies significantly. Some students enter the Upper School as dysfluent readers while others are challenged by attention, executive function, processing, math, and/or written expression. Each student’s unique learning profile is identified and supported across the school day. For students who are twice exceptional, Cambridge teachers effectively address their learning challenges while also nurturing the areas in which they excel.
The teachers are highly educated, thoughtful, and nurturing. They provide rigorous academic challenges, as well as the tools and strategies needed to meet those challenges. I am so pleased.
