The Schenck School

About The Schenck School

The Schenck School, located in Atlanta, Georgia, has been a beacon of hope and education for students with dyslexia for over 60 years. Our mission is to empower students in grades K-6 to embrace their unique learning styles and advocate for themselves. By employing the Orton-Gillingham Approach to phonics instruction, we provide a comprehensive education that focuses on essential skills such as Sound and Word Level Reading, Spelling, Handwriting, Vocabulary, Fluency, Math, and Science/Social Studies. Our dedicated faculty and staff work tirelessly to create an inclusive environment where students can thrive academically and socially, preparing them for successful transitions back to mainstream schools when appropriate.

At The Schenck School, we believe in the power of community. Our outreach program, ReadSource, extends our commitment to dyslexia awareness and education beyond our classrooms, sharing valuable resources and best practices with families and educators. We are proud to be accredited by esteemed organizations such as the Orton-Gillingham Academy and the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS/COGNIA), and we maintain affiliations with influential bodies like the International Dyslexia Association and the National Association of Independent Schools.

For those interested in learning more about our exceptional faculty, a comprehensive list of The Schenck School teachers is available on our website. We invite you to explore our programs and join us in celebrating the strengths of dyslexic learners. Together, we can continue to make a meaningful impact in the world of dyslexia education.
