Notes for Prospective Students
Vertical Skills Academy serves bright students who have a primary
language-based learning disability, such as Dyslexia, and who may
have difficulties with writing, math, or attention. Vertical Skills
Academy strives to maintain a well-defined student body in order to
provide focused instruction, enhance social-emotional learning, and
maximize learning opportunities. As every child has a unique
history and learning profile with individual strengths and
weaknesses which broadly impact learning, VSA must follow strict
enrollment guidelines to ensure success for all students. We
believe it is imperative that students are able to attend to
instruction, listen and understand, maintain behavioral
expectations, so that academic skills related to speaking, reading,
writing, and math grow. The enrollment process includes discussions
with parents, students, current teachers, and additional
interventionists as well as current data including applicable
professional evaluation(s), report cards, IEP/504 Plan, and
progress monitoring. Following a thorough data collection process
students are invited to spend the day at the school socializing and
participating in classes. Enrollment decisions are made shortly
after a student shadows or the family meets with admissions when
school is not in session.
