WHAT’S NEW Frameworks, our learning support department, provides instructional support to students in need. It consists of a team of learning specialists who provide intensive Orton-Gillingham reading and spelling instruction, as well as support in math, written expression, and reading comprehension. Speech language pathologists also work within the department, supporting students with identified language disorders and collaborating with teachers to integrate language development skills within their daily curriculum instruction.
