Creative Thinkers, Confident Learners

Park School is an independent K-8 private school whose mission is providing dyslexic learners with the targeted instruction, structured support, and affirming environment they need to reach their full potential. We are committed to preparing a new generation of creative thinkers, problem-solvers, and resilient innovators who are equipped to thrive in school and in life.

Educational Approach

Park School Philosophy

Park School provides a three-point approach to education:

Direct and explicit multi-sensory instruction with continuous diagnostic and prescriptive review.

Intensive, specific instruction enhances students' ability to process information through multiple senses, leading to improved comprehension and retention.

Students are presented with information the way they learn best, and are given the opportunity and support for deep practice of skills. Students experience continuous success, and the satisfaction of working through challenges.

Experiential learning across the curriculum.

Practical, hands-on experiences across the curriculum reinforce taught skills and foster an environment that allows students to develop confidence, critical thinking, creativity, and purpose.

Students develop their dyslexic advantages, gaining a deeper understanding of self and making big connections. Authentic opportunities for success, failure, exploration, and leadership allow for greater empathy and impactful learning.

Development of self in an emotionally sound environment.

An emotionally supportive environment is crucial for dyslexic learners as it fosters confidence and resilience, allowing them to embrace their learning differences and develop a positive self-image.

Students are appropriately challenged, while simultaneously given the accommodations and support needed to succeed. Empowered students are at ease in our school setting, open to new experiences, and ready to celebrate their unique contributions to the world.
