If you’re reading this, chances are you’ve been carrying the weight of watching your child struggle academically. Maybe your kid has been diagnosed with dyslexia or another language-based learning difference and they’re just not clicking with traditional classrooms. You’re not just shopping for a new school; you’re searching for hope. At PROVIDENT CHARTER SCHOOLS (PCS) we don’t just promise change – we actually deliver it through our in-person programming that takes your child from their toughest academic moments to confident high school readiness. Wondering how we do it?
We Turn Academic Struggles Into Daily Wins
Our teachers take the time to understand how each child’s brain works, and then everything changes. Our classrooms have two teachers (yes, two!) who are trained in multisensory teaching methods. When your child starts experiencing those “aha!” moments, like reading that sign they walk past every day or finally getting math concepts that seemed impossible, something magical happens. Kids who used to hide from reading start grabbing books during lunch, and students who once dreaded school now get excited to attend.
We Build the Life Skills That Actually Matter
Middle school is where we focus on teaching the skills that will make high school successful. We build skills around time management, self-advocacy, and executive functioning. Your middle schooler will learn to manage complex schedules, speak up for what they need, and take real ownership of their education through hands-on practice each day. They are not just memorizing facts; they are learning how to learn, how to ask for help when they need it, and how to be their own best advocate. By eighth grade, your child can walk into any high school and confidently tell their teachers exactly what they need to succeed.
We Create the Friend Groups That Change Everything
Social skills are as important as academic success for young learners. That’s why at PCS we’ve built an environment where kids with learning differences don’t feel different – they feel understood and valued. When your student realizes they’re not the only one who thinks differently, real friendships start to bloom. Whether they’re collaborating on projects in our STEAM lab, getting their hands dirty in the greenhouse, or bonding over Tae Kwon Do classes, these connections often last well beyond their PCS years and create a support system that will carry your child through high school and beyond.
We Send Students Off Ready to Own Their Story
By graduation, our eighth graders have something pretty incredible: they know who they are as learners, and they’re not afraid to advocate for themselves. They understand their learning profile, know exactly what accommodations help them shine, and have the confidence to speak up in any situation. Our students are tech-savvy with assistive tools, and have had tons of practice self-advocating in real-world situations. When they walk into high school, they are empowered learners ready to tackle whatever comes next.
At PCS, we understand that language-based learning differences can be challenging to navigate. We support elementary and middle school students with proven, effective tools and methods to help them succeed. Interested in learning more?
