Classes and Curriculum - Hearing and Speech Agency

Classes and Curriculum

Ages 3-5

 

Gateway School offers two programs for preschool children. One is a special, Auditory/Oral preschool for children with hearing loss (Please see information below on our Auditory/Oral Preschool Program). Our regular preschool program is for children ages 3 through 5 with communication disorders that include speech and language delays, developmental delays, autism and other conditions that may include hearing loss. Like all Gateway School programs, classes for preschool children are small, with a low student-teacher ratio of 3:1 or less.

Our preschool students often face the challenges of multiple and sometimes medically complicated conditions. But our teachers make their preschool experience as nurturing and educational as possible. They provide each child with the attention he or she needs, and skillfully bring the students to their highest possible potential until they reach age five.

Ages 5-12

 

The Classes

Classes for students age 5 through 12 offer language, academic and social skills instruction. Emphasis is placed on expanding and refining language skills that, in turn, support academic development and appropriate socialization.

Gateway school’s individualized, multi-sensory instruction develops reading, spelling, written language and mathematics skills. Our classrooms are equipped with FM systems to meet both whole group and individual needs.
