The only school of its kind in Southwestern Pennsylvania, Provident Charter School is a tuition free, public school designed for educating students with language-based learning differences such as dyslexia.  The overall structure of Provident Charter School is different than traditional schools as it offers an environment tailored for supporting students who are struggling to read:

• Small group instruction (6-to-1, student-to-teacher ratio)
• Flexible, leveled grouping
• 1 hour of daily Wilson Reading Intervention by certified Wilson instructors
• Multi-sensory lessons designed to engage all types of learners
• 1-to-1 student devices which offer individualized assistive technology
• “Home” work is completed at school with the support of teachers

Just as important as the school’s structure are the compassionate educators and administrators who work with the students on a daily basis.  The employees at Provident Charter School have a thorough understanding of our students’ needs and are dedicated to making school a positive, uplifting experience.

The successes of students at Provident Charter School are seen not only in test scores but throughout their daily lives…
