🌟 Help Shape the Future of Orton Academy! 💫🦉

Orton Academy is considering expanding our grade levels to include Kindergarten and 1st Grade in the future. 🏫

As a school committed to supporting students with dyslexia, reading challenges, ADHD, and other learning differences through structured literacy and the Science of Reading, we highly value the input of our families and the Colorado Springs community. 🏔️

Thank you for helping us plan for the future of Orton Academy! 😊✨

Thank you to the Les Paul Foundation for supporting our music program at Orton Academy, we greatly appreciate the instruments your foundation was able to supply our students. Our community of dyslexic learners and those who struggle with reading enjoy exploring creative outlets such as music and your foundation has allowed us to continue to support those outlets.
