“The school's three largest service areas are the day school, summer camp, and study lab. The day school was fully enrolled for the 2018-2019 school year with 250 students. The school continues to provide an excellent education to students diagnosed with reading difficulties, namely dyslexia. Students attend the school for a 2, 3 or 4 year period and then are outplaced to various public and private schools. While at the schenck school, students learn not only what their learning difficulty is, but also how to compensate for it and move forward with the confidence and ability to achieve in school and to enjoy learning. The study lab program served over half of our 2nd through 6th graders with specific and specialized homework assistance after school four days each week. Our successful summer camp program has sessions for elementary and middle school age children. For our current students, summer camp keeps their learning skills sharp over the summer months. Many students attend from the metro atlanta community and return to their respective schools with improved reading skills. Camp is also a great service to new students entering the school in august, allowing faculty a jump start on knowing and understanding the student and his/her needs. Summer camp has become a great admission tool, allowing parents a chance to preview the school while considering application for their son or daughter.”
