The Crossroads Philosophy

Our philosophy includes the following tenets:

• Each child is unique and learns in different ways.
• Students are encouraged to reach their highest level of achievement within the framework of their capabilities and talents.
• Self-esteem and confidence are essential to academic success.
• Many children with learning differences also have associated social and organizational difficulties.
• Students are taught to advocate for themselves and become “their own best expert."
• Fostering healthy relationships is essential to the whole child.
• Creative and flexible teaching strategies are required to accommodate different learning styles.
• Interfacing of both remedial and compensatory skills is required for successful learning.
