Exceptional students often have special needs due to a disability, giftedness, or both, and commonly face extra challenges as learners. New Horizons helps special needs learners to develop the tools required for success both inside and outside the classroom.

We specialize in individualized support and programming designed to make the most of students’ unique skills and potential. New Horizons works with schools to ensure that our programs are most effective. We believe in collaborative education to maximize academic and personal success.

New Horizons offers programming for:

  • Dyslexia, Dyscalculia and Dysgraphia
  • Acquired Brain Injury
  • ADD/ADHD
  • Autism Spectrum Disorder
  • Hearing Loss
  • Other

 

During the intake process, students with special needs are assessed to determine their specific strengths and needs. Placement, resources, and programming goals are established on the basis of each student’s unique needs. Accommodations and modifications are integrated into programming using student testing, IEP’s, input from parents and teachers, and the professional guidance of the New Horizons teaching team.

Individual programming may include modification of the curriculum, supplementary aides or equipment, and assistive technology (e.g. Dragon Naturally Speaking, Kurzweil and Inspiration) that allow students to participate in the educational environment to the fullest extent possible.

New Horizons offers continuous intake and a wide range of services designed to meet the needs of learners at all levels of achievement. Call to book a complimentary appointment today!
