  • For students with Dyslexia, instruction and assessments can all be customized for them to go at their pace and dig deeper with their teacher.

  • Here are just a few of the accommodations that have helped our students with ASD:

    • clearly established and ordered routines

    • warning and preparation when changes are anticipated

    • planning and practicing communication strategies and social routines

    • student breaks & time-out when necessary

    • visual schedules and graphic organizers

    • visual or written, rather than auditory, instructions

  • Students who have ADD/ADHD are provided with the support they need to thrive. Distractions are managed and students actively engage in class at all times.

  • Anxiety comes in many forms: social, school, general, test, and more. At BMS we can personalize the experience to create a space where students feel safe and supported. Teachers also act as mentors and check in with students throughout the class period and school day.
