Craig School Articles

As educators of students with exceptionalities, The Craig School celebrates students’ strengths and competencies, acknowledges that students sometimes learn differently than their peers, and provides a thorough, well-rounded, robust educational program suited to their unique challenges and strengths.

Orton-gillingham & Structured Literacy Intervention
“Speaking is natural, and reading is not. Reading is an acquired act, an invention of man…” (Shaywitz, 2003).
