Discoveries provides individualized or small group (2-4 students) instruction for students with mild learning difficulties or remedial needs in language arts (reading) and mathematics. Small classes, positive learning experiences, and the use of multiple teaching techniques provide a supportive and successful environment for helping these students to reach their academic potential. Available to students in grades 1-8. Additional tuition is charged for this program.

PLUS is designed to provide an opportunity for a Christian education to students who have been diagnosed with a learning disability. Students should have a current evaluation for admittance into the PLUS program. Our staff works with you to develop an individualized service plan. PLUS is a multi-grade, multi-age level class with a ratio of one teacher for every five children. Students are also integrated in their grade level activities daily. This program has its own tuition schedule and is available to students in grades 1-6.
