Lower School LLC

Support for diagnosed neurodiverse learners in the Early Learning Campus and Lower School, so your child can grow in learning awareness, self-advocacy, and organizational habits while staying connected to classroom community.

Who It Is For

Known and supported in Lower School

The Lower School Legacy Learning Center partners with families whose children have a qualifying neurodiverse diagnosis and a documented educational need for accommodations or specialized instruction. Specialists work alongside classroom teachers so students receive targeted support with as little disruption to core learning as possible.

For kindergarten through 2nd grade, need is determined collaboratively by the classroom teacher, LLC teacher, and parents. Beginning in 3rd grade, a full educational diagnostic battery and qualifying diagnosis are required.
