Spring Valley School is an independent, coeducational, college-preparatory school whose mission is to provide excellence in education for bright students with learning differences. Spring Valley School admits students with average to above-average intelligence who have been diagnosed with a language or mathematics-based learning difference such as Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, or Dyscalculia. OUR PROGRAM


Spring Valley integrates individualized research-based remediation with a comprehensive school program featuring a strong state-approved college preparatory core curriculum. We provide:

• An Orton-Gillingham (Alphabetic Phonics) reading and math program

• A small student/teacher ratio
• A highly trained faculty and staff
• Regular parent-teacher conferences
• Post-secondary transition planning
• A hands-on approach to keep learning fun

THE ORTON-GILLINGHAM PROGRAM

Spring Valley School utilizes the Orton-Gillingham teaching method which emphasizes a multi-sensory approach to reading, employing the visual, auditory, and tactile systems. Based on over 60 years of research and practice, this unique curriculum is highly individualized and cognitive in approach. The Orton-Gillingham method is anchored in multi-sensory language instruction that stimulates and builds auditory, visual and tactile/kinesthetic pathways to learning. It teaches the structure of language and the tools that improve reading, writing and spelling.

Big shoutout to Jacob Fiveash, son of our Executive Director, Laura Fiveash! Jacob is a passionate animal enthusiast and neurodivergent creator whose YouTube channel takes viewers along on his adventures to zoos, aquariums, theme parks, and other exciting destinations.

His latest adventure brought him to McWane Science Center to explore the Survival of the Slowest exhibit, where he discovered how some of nature’s most laid-back creatures have developed fascinating ways to survive and thrive. 🦥🐢
