Benjamin Academy 2024-2025 School Year
Consider Benjamin Academy for the needs your child for the following:
1. Academics
At Benjamin Academy, students strive for success academically, and at their own pace. We empower all students to excel in a small classroom environment, promoting low anxiety for a positive outcome.
- Reading (Use of blends, word decoding, encoding, basic comprehension), Orton-Gillingham
- Math (Traditional and Touch Math)
- Science (Live Experiments)
- Social Studies
- English Language (Social Concept)
2. Low Student: Teacher Ratio
Our teachers are committed to student success individually. A classroom of 1 teacher and 1 assistant is our normal teaching scenario.
We can combine students for a group setting, if proven beneficial for the classroom setting.
3. Peer Group Conversation
We all take having a conversation as a normal process. Sometimes our children struggle with just having a "basic" conversation. We promote language groups, promoting social concepts while in the classroom and lunch periods.
4. Specific Needs Addressed
Some students who are accepted at Benjamin Academy may have ADD/ADHD, Mild Autism, Aspergers, Mild Intellectual Disability, or Communication Disorders (verbal or non verbal). We provide an individual learning plan for most students. Students are accepted into an "anxiety free" environment with no student behaviors. As we work to ensure all students have the appropriate environment for their needs, currently we are unable to serve students with Emotional and Behavioral Disorders, Oppositional Defiant Disorder or other Conduct Disorders.
