Academics

Personalized Academics, Exceptional Outcomes.

At Eagle Hill School, we individualize our education program for each of our students, seamlessly incorporating instruction in reading, writing, math, listening, speaking, and social skills throughout the day.

Our goal is to provide intensive, short-term, remedial instruction to children with learning differences, and return them to the educational mainstream as soon as possible.

While this means we can’t tell you exactly what your child’s academic schedule here will look like, we can tell you what the outcomes will be:

Confidence, understanding, independence - and a newfound love of learning.

Eagle Hill academics are founded in our unique approach.

We provide students with personalized instruction designed to increase listening, speaking, reading, writing, math, and social skills in an ungraded, non-competitive, goal-oriented setting.

• Students build a close rapport with their teachers in small classes (an average of four students).
• Students learn skills and strategies to manage their learning differences effectively in school and at home. At the same time, they develop their self-esteem, friendship-building skills, and strong moral and ethical character.
• Each student is challenged to take risks as they develop new skills and experience unfamiliar activities.

Children leave Eagle Hill School with confidence in their academic abilities, a true belief in their worth, and the strategies necessary to meet the challenges of new school and social settings.

Your child’s academic program will evolve with their progress.

When your child arrives at Eagle Hill, we will carefully evaluate their academic level and determine the nature of their challenges in order to develop their unique educational program. We will also determine if additional services are needed.

As your child grows and learns, we will evaluate their school division placement.

Eagle Hill does not assign students to specific grade levels. Therefore, decisions about placement in Lower School or Upper School and in classes are made based on individual student learning profiles and academic peer group appropriateness.
