All Summer@Carroll students entering Grades 1-7 receive language instruction using the Orton-Gillingham approach each day of the program.
Beginning Readers students (entering grades 1-2) take a multisensory, highly interactive Orton-Gillingham class each day. 2+ Orton-Gillingham tutors work with each class, creating carefully curated groups of 2-3 students to deliver each Summer@Carroll child what they most need.
Elementary and Middle School students (entering grades 3-7) receive daily 1:1 Orton-Gillingham language tutoring. For all Elementary and many Middle School students, tutoring will take place in person. For our older Middle School students, tutoring may take place in person and/or virtually using school-issued Chromebooks.
High School Readiness students (entering Grades 8-9) do not typically have language tutorials, but accommodations can sometimes be made for tutoring if it's critical to the student’s academic success. HSR students focus on writing, executive functioning, and math skills during their morning academic blocks.
