Direct Instruction is the secret to student success
At the heart of our success is the Direct Instruction (DI) curriculum, a systematic, research-proven, multi-sensory teaching methodology which is fast-paced, highly interactive, and founded on the belief that all students can learn regardless of their educational histories, behavioral patterns, or learning preferences. Direct Instruction provides structured, personalized support to meet the needs of individual students in a variety of settings.
