After School Club

The Fletcher School, named for one of its founders, Mac Fletcher, was established in 1982 by parents who wanted more educational options for their children with specific learning disabilities. It is an independent school, operated as a nonprofit organization, with a program designed to meet the individual needs of students with specific learning disabilities and attention difficulties, such as disorders in reading, written expression or math, dyslexia, dysgraphia and language processing deficits. It offers a comprehensive educational program designed to build the academic, social and emotional competence of its students, and enables them to accept and value themselves. Fletcher School s program offers a student-to-teacher ratio of 6-to-1, and is based on the principles of the Orton-Gillingham approach for teaching reading, writing, spelling and math, as part of a total language system.
