Language Based Learning Differences at Sandhills School

Supporting Bright Students with Dyslexia and Related Learning Differences

At Sandhills School, we believe that students with learning differences like dyslexia have limitless potential. Through our individualized approach, we help students build the skills and confidence they need to excel in academics and life.

What is Dyslexia?

Dyslexia is a brain-based learning difference that affects the way individuals process language. While it can make reading, writing, and spelling more challenging, it’s not an indicator of intelligence. In fact, many students with dyslexia are highly creative thinkers with unique strengths. With the right instruction and tools, students with dyslexia can thrive in an academic environment.

At Sandhills, we don’t just accommodate learning differences – we celebrate them. Our goal is to unlock each student’s potential by tailoring education to meet their unique learning needs.

How We Support Students with Dyslexia

What Makes Sandhills School Unique?

At Sandhills, our focus goes beyond academic intervention. We help students build confidence, independence, and a love of learning that will last a lifetime.

  • Small Class Sizes: Our students benefit from small classes, where teachers offer personalized attention and individualized instruction.
  • Academic Intervention without Sacrificing Extracurriculars: Students don’t miss out on sports or special activities just to catch up on schoolwork. Athletics, arts, and clubs are all part of the Sandhills experience.
  • A Welcoming Community: We foster an environment where every student feels safe and supported – a place where they can develop both academically and socially.
